The stool was very easy to assemble, looks great, has comfortable padding and is definitely made with quality parts. However, depending on what you are using it for, I would not recommend it despite the high quality.
I bought the stool to utilize as a desk chair. I liked the hydro-lift, stainless steel bottom, cushiony support and the fact that it's not a big, bulky chair with winged backing that takes up too much room and looks too big for my desk. I thought this would be perfect, but it's not. It truly purports as a "stool" and not a "desk chair". The round seat is rather small. It's fine for me as a woman, but for an adult male, it looks juvenile. And because of the material it is made from, depending on what you are wearing, you may glide/slide around on it a bit. Finally, the short seat back would have initially been good for low back support, but due to the smallness of the seat cushion, it's not really utilized.
Again...I think a nice stool but generally a good idea for maybe filing or to use in an actual medical office. As a desk chair, this is not the best idea. I would imagine the BOSS Caressoft "chair" would likely be a better option.
