Pros

Overall build quality seems pretty durable. It feels durable and will last for years. Very helpful customer support. Amazon is doing you a solid - now do your customers one @ steelcase.

The chair is built solidly and there are absolutely no creaks or noises.

Cons

This model 442a40 is a discontinued item. I usually don't try to leave bad reviews and is the product is meh, i let it be. Steelcase does not stand behind their products when they fail prematurely.

My #1 peeve with this chair is that is squeaks. It annoys me that such an expensive chair at the 5 months mark squeaks like a 2 year old chair. Because i can't find comfort on it, i have to shift weight and people knows when i'm moving because it sque...  Read More

Quality


The many adjustments are great in making the chair fit what you want, the high quality keeps the chair feeling great for years to come!


The foam in the seat and back is holding up really well, still feels great.


The first few days, my spine would crack and decompress with the great lumbar support and the way the chair perfectly supported...  Read More


After a year of full day use, it felt horrible.

Price


Before this i'd tried a few cheap chairs you could grab at any supermarket, as well as one 'gaming' chair that cost $400 and wa...  Read More


Glad i didn’t skimp on the price.


At $1,400 for a chair supporting up to 400lbs, i am curious as to why the back has already started to creak.

Competitiveness


I bought this chair because it was the best rated office chair by new york times wirecutter.


I bought it due to top rating in wirecutter and i see why it was highly recommended.
