It keeps the design simple, with no footrest. It has a 1.8mm steel frame, high-density foam and a class 3 gas lift rated for 300 lbs. Rubber casters roll quietly on hard floors.

Its seat height adjusts from 17.3 to 21.5 inches, which suits average-height users. On recline angle it leads this guide at 155°, ahead of the adult footrest chair (150°). You also get this: reclines to 155°.

Its lumbar support adjusts and a footrest slides out for breaks. The backrest reclines from 90 to 150 degrees and locks at any angle, with a retractable footrest for breaks. Its PU leather is water-repellent and wipes clean.

The high back follows the spine's S-curve to support neck, upper back and lower back. Its 150° recline angle ranks second of 4 here, behind the Homall high back (155°) and ahead of the WOTSTA massage (135°). You get an adjustable lumbar support here, which sets it apart from the TUKAKA and its a massage lumbar support. On price it sat second of 5, between the cheaper WOTSTA massage and the pricier Homall high back, at the time of writing.
