Pros & Cons

Update Pros and Cons

The AI used to provide these results are constantly improving. These results might change.

Pros

Fit and finish are excellent on the chair i received. No unpleasant smells or stains. Big debate with me is how much is my comfort worth, and will the cheaper chair do the job without compromises?

A little tag hung on the back of the chair explains all of the adjustments using clear pictographs and simple language. I like that i can adjust the seat so that my back is nestled against the seat back and my legs still fall off the seat front at a r... Read More

Best to have two people to lift out of the box. Timely delivery and a very good quality chair.

Cons

There is no contoured surface that support the shape of your back. The lumbar support is a pain to get adjusted. Depending on the day, sometimes it ranges from noticeably uncomfortable to downright painful.

They move too much. It's especially frustrating because the armrests slide outward to the slightest touch. The arms have a rubbery texture and little padding, which has given me a painful red spot on my elbow from pivoting my arm to grab my mouse.

After 15-30 minutes of sitting, the cushion warms up and bottoms out. The padding is very thin. Seat cushioning is hard. Not as plush in images as the amia.

You need to be able to lock the back solidly to give some support and at other times have it recline. The reclining mechanism is either too weak--allowing you to tilt backwards too easily--or if you set it tight enough to prevent you from unintentiona... Read More

These chairs are high on looks, but low on functionality. I know looks aren't very important, but it's a bland looking chair considering the price. This chair was a disappointment for me.

Highlights

Quality

Not cheap, but you can feel the quality and it comes already assembled.

I am very pleased with the purchase.

The difference is absurd and the quality is *chef's kiss*.

The price for the chair i bought changed almost daily.

Price

The chair that was delivered was totally new and legit, and the price was very competitive.

I liked it so much that when i had to go back to my office, i bought a second one for there, even though the price had jumped $200.

I decided to buy from amazon because the price was substantially lower than other outlets, which actually concerned me.

Sticker shocked, i could not believe the price.

Shipping

The shipping box was in shambles but to my delight, the chair was protected by loads and loads of air bubble packing stuff.

I discovered this used leap chair from seller te seating for $499, shipping included.

I bought the black/black version with prime shipping - so sold, and stocked by amazon.

Packaging/appearance

) and the packaging protects well against shipping damage and is all cardboard (recyclable) and plastic sheet cover.

It comes fully assembled and ready to go right out of the box.

Best to have two people to lift out of the box.

Competitiveness

I didn't get a refurb, so this on the new model.

Reviews on refurb chairs have been mixed.
