Hi, I am looking to buy 2 chairs for my therapy office. How durable are these chairs? I have many different sizes of people in my office, and the most the chair would be used at one time is 1 hour, so I am okay with a firmer chair, as the chairs I have now are firm and I have no complaints. Is this a good chair for this purpose? Hi, I am looking to buy 2 chairs for my therapy office. How durable are these chairs?

This is a nice chair; however, it is low. I am not sure how they would hold up under that type of traffic. Ours are in an area that is only used marginally.

Sorry to say but do not use this chair for everyday use like for patients. I sit for reading and looking at my laptop but it doesn't have enough cushion for siting on.

The chairs have been reasonably durable. We've had them for less than a year so hard to asess durability for now. We are small people so they have served us well, but the fit may be an issue for larger size people. These chairs are nice looking and of reasonably decent materials for the price. Hope this helps.

I have had my chair for 8 months, and it is sturdy, and has been very reliable thus far! I use it 4 to 5 times a week. I am very satisfied with this purchase.

Hi Mary,I am an Interior Designer. I ordered 2 of these for an office that I remodeled and put in a taller countertop to use as a desk/work area.They have not said anything, about the chairs not being great. Believe me, they are very vocal about everything.I hope this helps.Janet Pride

I think it's a great chair for the price. I own two now. Originally, I replaced my home office chair. I liked this model so much that I had one delivered to work to replace the well-used chair provided by my employer. I don't know if it really competes with a Herman Miller (which I had at one job), but it really works well for me.

The chair is very comfortable, cannot answer about durable, have not had it long enough to tell. Great chair for the price. We love ours.

The chair has great padding on the back and should be good for long hours of sitting. The seat padding is a bit weak. It's great for a short time but may feel a bit hard after a couple hours of sitting.

The chair has great lumbar support. I had a friend over who is 6'4" and has back problems and he said the chair was super comfortable. I use it 8 hours a day, 5 days a week for my home office and I'm very happy with the purchase. It was also very easy to put together. Very few parts.

We use our chairs for approximately 8+ hours per day at my office, and the seat is comfortable. I agree with Ryan B. about the back, as I have found myself leaving back a good bit (versus sitting straight like my old chair). Overall, however, it is a very comfortable chair, and I'm happy with it.

You won't have a problem. I've had this chair for 8 months and have no complaints. Very comfortable chair.

I'm not sure how long I have had it, maybe almost a year but it is still basically a brand new chair. I use it for work daily. I guess if you are asking if it is quality or plastic china junk that falls apart the third time you sit in it, my answer is it is not Junk. If one is doing acrobatics in the chair or weighs a lot, I am not sure if it would hold up the same.

The chair was a gift to my son. The chair went together very easy. He sits in it at least 4 to 6 hours a day. It has held up extremely well. I would highly recommend this item.

I am pleased with the firmness of the back, it's adjustable too, and the support it gives me. I have only used it on gym bleacher seats so far and have been grateful by the end of the tournament that I had it. I would not be able to answer for you on how much support you would need but I would recommend this chair!!

I have been sitting on one of these chairs for 8-9 hours a day, 5 days a week (at work), for a couple of years. I love it! It provides "active" sitting opportunities and my abdomen has become tighter as a result and my posture has improved. The padded bar you see pictured is not a backrest but more of a "grab bar" to assist in getting on/off the chair. There is not back support; no leaning back. My only complaint would be that the casters lock into place with just the slightest touch, like when my foot barely kicks one. Then I have to reach down and unlock it. Not really a big deal, but somewhat annoying. I have been sitting on one of these chairs for 8-9 hours a day, 5 days a week (at work), for a couple of years. I love it!

I would not recommend for 8 hrs a day use. They are comfortable but on a leisurely basis. We currently use them for additional office furniture for guests. Sturdy comfy I would recommend them.

Wow, good question. I have had mine for 1 year and I have no idea if I have a good or bad one. It seems very well made and has held up well. My one complaint is that the back of the chair is in a very upright position. When my little guy first started using it, he sat towards the front so his feet would stay on the ground. Now that he is bigger, he sits back but looks uncomfortable, like the back is too straight. So he basically turns it over and leans on it. I got him another chair, the rocker from walmart, much cheaper, and he seems to use that one more because it looks (and I guess) feels more comfortable.

I would have to say it would depend on how long you plan on having people in the chair??? Once it gets broken in, it would be loose enough to sit in for long periods of time. I only use it for small bursts in a show I perform in. You would probably want something built for comfort more than this. I can't see life casting someones face in this.
