CASART PU Leather Office Chair, 300/400/500LBS Big and Tall Executive Chair with Rocking Backrest&Armrest, Heavy Duty Metal Base, Height Adjustable Computer Desk Chair for Home Working (400LBS, Black)

TLDR : If you are on the heavy side and need a chair that can handle the punishment this seems like it's the one for you.So...long story but might be useful to someone. 4 years ago I bought a "TPFLiving Heavy Duty XXL Office Chair Denver Capacity: 210 kg" for £129. Rated to 210kg (~462lbs). Great chair, assembly was a bugger trying to line everything up with just one pair of hands but managed. Recently the right arm cracked and the chair could no longer support any weight against the backrest, seems it was cast aluminium. To be clear at my heaviest I was 180kg (396lbs) and when it cracked I was closer to 300lbs. It did last 4 years but gave out at much less than the rated weight.So, I set about finding a stronger, sturdier chair and settled on the 500lb version of this one giving me a whopping 200lbs of leeway between my weight and it's maximum.On to the review...It weighs a hell of a lot, it says 25kg on the box but I doubt that as no one in my office could lift the box except me and I am a powerlifter so I know what 25kg feels like. The chair is pretty easy to assemble, all screws are labelled on the back of the pack they come in with perforated access, it comes with an allen key which is all you need to assemble it. All holes lined up nicely and if you get the arms the right way around (they are labelled) they have recesses that can slot into the holes on the back rests making it easy to keep it in place whilst you insert the bolts. I assembled the whole thing whilst sat on my on another chair.Quality/rigidityIt is very obvious this chair is going to last and stand up to some weighty punishment (which is why you buy this in the first place). Seems like all the important parts are made out of steel, even the arm rests that gave way on my other chair are heavy steel. Only plastic parts really were the wheels, they look solid but I do wonder about them. Fortunately they are standard office chair wheels, I have spare ceramics wheels with brakes if they go but I think they will be fine.Comfort.It is a very LARGE chair. I thought my last chair was big but this is bigger still, much wider. It literally is like an arm chair on wheels. It is heavily padded on the front and the back, the back feels very comfortable but that might depend on your back needs.One thing to note is that even at minimum setting the tilt spring feels like it's going to catapult me out of the window but I seem to remember my last chair was exactly the same and it loosens up and becomes easier to lean back in a few weeks.

Fantastic. It's big, its comfy and it's really strong. Just what I needed. I've been using it for a few months now and it's the chair I sit in the most, so much better than others I've had in the past, the extra size and general robustness are great!

This is an early impression as I just assembled it 30 minutes ago, but all indications are is that it is very comfortable and sturdy, I have no reason to think I will change my mind.Now, it would be safe to say that I am NOT a DIY person, I can't stand putting things together, and I was not relishing tackling this. The instructions are super clear and even I couldn't mess up. But! Just one tip for anyone putting this together, when you put the back of the seat on, leave the screws holding the arm rests in as loose as possible, hanging off almost, otherwise you will not be able to squeeze the back into place without a) tearing the fabric, or b) throwing the whole thing through the nearest window.So in conclusion, this is a fab chair, value for money and solid as a rock. Just watch the back as you put it on.

Really pleased with this chair. Easy to put together, took me roughly 30 mins, easy to follow instructions. It's quite a big chair all over which I was looking being a larger chap, it's sturdy and heavy at around 25kg, and very comfortable so far, so no complaints. Would certainly recommend this chair.

The only redeeming quality of this chair is that it looks good, and it arrived quickly. That’s where the positives end. Comfort-wise, I’ve sat on more inviting spikes. The chair has zero meaningful adjustments—no tilt control, no way to make it ergonomic. I now have a deep respect for rodeo cowboys because sitting in this chair feels like training for a championship ride.The seat naturally tilts forward, actively trying to eject you, aided by the slippery, cheap fake leather. It’s less of a chair and more of a battle to stay seated. If you’re considering this for an office chair—don’t. There are far more comfortable alternatives, such as a traffic cone, a rose bush, or a jagged rock. My lower back is under more strain than when Mustafa, my strong Turkish masseuse, gives me a deep-tissue pummelling. My legs feel like I’ve been doing endless leg crunches because you’ll spend your entire time bracing yourself against this deceptive torture device.I contacted the seller, who generously offered me £15 to keep the chair. I can only assume they thought I enjoyed suffering. No amount of money would convince me to use this as my daily work chair. After just 15–20 minutes, I ran back to my old, wonky chair with open arms, and I’ve never been happier to see it.To add insult to injury, returning this 22KG monstrosity is at my own expense. Seriously, not happy about that. So let me be crystal clear: DO NOT BUY THIS CHAIR. If it’s not what you expect, be prepared to pay out of pocket to send it back. Consider this your warning.

Pretty easy to put together, build quality is decent for the price. The seat is comfy enough and the back is nice and wide if you're broad shouldered. Unfortunately the max height on the chair is a bit too short for me (I'm 200cm, about 6'7?), really needs an extra 5cm or so in height adjustment to make it comfortable for me.If you're more of a normal height you'll probably be fine.Also my cat immediately scratched the crap out of it, really doesn't stand up well to claws so if you have cats that like to lounge on your chair beware.

I'll keep this short: If you're looking for a sturdy, comfortable chair, then this is it! It's super easy to assemble.
