Steelcase Series 2 Office Chair, Graphite Frame, Cogent Connect Malt, Hard Floor Casters

I bought a leather office chair during COVID for about $250 or so. It's soft, has a lot of cushioning, and is fine for sitting back to read a book. But, it's not wearing terribly well and it's also really uncomfortable at my desk given the rest of the desk's ergonomics. I researched top rated office chairs and Steelcase models consistently were near or at the top most ratings. I was tempted by the Gesture but went with the Series 2 at half the price. I have zero regrets. This is a terrific chair. Excellent back support, comfortable seating, and myriad adjustments. It takes about 5 minutes to assemble with no tools and the build quality is very good. Highly recommended.

Great chair. Solidly built. Very comfortable.

Why did you pick this product vs others?: I picked this product because it was highly rated in my research for a new chair. Cushioning: The only thing I was slightly disappointed in was the "cushioning". There is none. The seating is rather stiff. Value for money: I thought it was too expensive actually. Back support: Wonderful Comfort: Overall comfort, a "4". Fit: This chair fits well in my desk arrangement. Build quality: Built very well.

Expensive but well worth the price if you sit for hours at your desk

Easy to assemble and extremely comfortable. Perfect chair for my work from home setup.

At the beginning of the pandemic, thinking WFH would only last for a few weeks, I "splurged" and bought myself a $50 desk chair! Two years and one aching back later, I decided it was time for an upgrade, but couldn't bring myself to spend the really big bucks on the top of the line Steelcase or Herman Miller chairs. It's only been one day but so far I am very satisfied with this much less expensive (but still not cheap!) choice. It seems like one of Steelcase's entry level ergonomic choices, but it's very solid and really does seem to have a comfortable seat, supportive back (with an adjustable lumbar support), and nice adjustable padded armrests. With the help of the assembly video on Amazon's website, putting it together was easy, and only took a few minutes. The adjustment instructions that come with the chair are easy to follow and allow you to kind of customize the chair to fit your size and preferences. It really makes a big difference. So far so good!

I've now had this chair for little over two years now and started running into problems with right after the year long mark. Aside from the seat itself not being comfy in the slightest, the arms on my chair at that base broke off. After looking at them a lil more, the material made around the arms and the screws going into the base are flimsy and overall terribly made and put together. Would not recommend this chair for anyone that spends a decent amount of time in it

Honestly the chair is fine. It's comfortable and good looking, but that's about where the positivity ends. I had a horrendous time with my purchase and assembly (and disassembly) of the chair. There are other reviews that outline the same issues I had. First actually focusing on this chair and then my terrible experience below... There just aren't a lot of features on this chair for something that costs close to $600. There is no locking recline, the lumbar support doesn't do much, the chair feels solid but cheap at the same time. Honestly, I would not recommend this chair to anyone. Instead save a few hundred dollars and buy and a brand without the name, because that's all you are getting here. You are simply paying for the name. Especially if you are not 100% set on this chair, because if you want to return it...well, read below. On my first chair the switch to raise/lower the chair was broken, so I asked for a replacement and needed to ship back my first order. GOOD LUCK try to disassemble this chair to ship it back. I spent HOURS trying to disassemble it only to give up and eventually tape multiple XL boxes together because the chair was too large to fit into a single and it needed to be "packaged" in order to return it. The replacement chair I received then had a different part that was broken on it (the switch to lock the sliding seat in place). Luckily I just decided to Frankenstein the working part from my original chair with the new one that I received before I had the mailed back the broken chair. Overall, just don't bother with this chair. There are cheaper brands that look just as nice with better features available.

Fue fácil de armar. Muy cómoda y resistente, llevo usándola 4 meses y hasta el momento todo muy bien. El único detalle es que cuando recibí las piezas, una de ellas tenía un pequeño rayón, era en la parte de abajo de la silla, por eso decidí quedármela.

The seat is wobbly and feels loose, the back even when locked moves around quite a bit. The seat was so hard that my lower back hurts after sitting in it for just 30 mts. Overall, I expected more from a steelcase product. The only redeeming factor was that the arms were super comfortable. Edit - 14+ days after Amazon receiving the item my refund has still not been processed. Buyer beware that it is amazons "procedure" to keep your money with them for as long as possible for high value items such as these. Willl never be buying anything over $300 with these people ever again.
