What buyers say about Amazon Basics Upholstered, Low-Back, Adjustable, Swivel Office Desk Chair
The chairs were very easy to assemble, lightweight materials, the parts were all assembled in a tray, the seat adjustors were easy to use, and I was able to put one together alone because of my small weak hands.
The AmazonBasics task chair has a problem with being in the center of the cushion after only three days of use, but I won't hold it against the other brands because they have the same problem.
I feel very comfortable in it, because I am a large woman, and it rolls perfectly, even though I have to raise the chair up or down.
I have been using this chair for a few weeks now and I have to say that it is a very good chair for the money and it is very easy to set up.
The chair is very high in the back and it is well padded, I wanted this chair to be used for keyboarding, I usually have to put my regular office chair at the top setting.

They are sturdy and can be locked into place if you recline it back a little with the adjuster on the bottom.

The chair is solid but it doesn't offer much support and the fabric is very rough to the point that I can feel it through jeans.
