Comfortable desk chair in black which is not intrusive looking in a smaller room.

Volt drafting stool--great chair--easy assembly.

Volt drafting stool/chair--no arms. Smooth bonded leather. Soft padded seating. Larger than expected. Easy to assemble. Great chair so far. Instructions don't say but there is plastic cap at bottom of the foot ring--take it off--just shipping protection. I use as a standard stool & the extra height lets me see over a tall counter. **Instructions say assemble bottom part & the top part & then put top part on top of the bottom part (on the gas cylinder.)--OK if you have a spotter to guide you. What I found easier was to put the top part on a table--pick up the bottom part with gas cylinder installed & insert the gas cylinder in the hole in the top part--Pick up the whole chair & put it on the floor. First time to order from Overstock--hesitant--item not well described on the website & had conflicting descriptions. Said foot ring adjustable but I never could see the knob that other chairs had to lock the ring in place--turns out there is no knob--lock the ring place by turning the entire foot ring. Finally pulled the trigger to buy & I am glad that I did. Looked at many chairs but chose Volt because the car dealership I go to has several of them (full chair version) & they have done well. My Service advisor is taller & hefty so I thought if it worked for him it would work for me.

Excellent chair, very comfortable padding, amazing back support, wheels roll very easily. Only complaint is that the arm rest does not come with the chair, had to get it separately otherwise 100% recommend.

Frustrating chair but Wayfair is great. The chair arrived about 10 days ago. First I had trouble putting the castors in - I'm pretty strong but they were NOT simply clicking into place with a push. Wayfair reached out to Hon for me who said to use a rubber mallet which clued me in (put the castor in its hole, then use a hammer to bang HARD a few times on the flat space at the end between the castor ridges).

Great stool

These are great stools that really last a long time. We tried some of the cheaper more generic ones but HON should be at least the base line order for anyone. Great that the arms are optional.

I saw the reviews saying the up/down gas cylinder on this thing fails, but though 'eh, it's probably an isolated production thing, I'm sure they've fixed it by now.' Answer: they have not. I used this chair for about 6 months at which point it began randomly and at the most inopportune times possible descending to its lowest position in a motion that would be comic if not so frustrating. Sitting on a Zoom call with Jan from Accounting, my entire body descends out of frame like the wobbly establishing shot of a community college student film. 'But can't you just replace the gas cylinder?' I hear you ask. 'They're cheap.' Yes, yes you can. But if you're going to do it, for the love of Pete, do it before you ever once assemble it. Removing the old incontinent gas cylinder after 6 months of holding up my sturdy posterior was akin to removing the brake caliper on a 1988 Caprice that spent its entire life on a Rural Indiana dirt road. Pipe wrenches, levers, a torch, and enough youtube videos to send some aspiring influencer to internet college, I finally got the thing out, completely destroying the cylinder and the foot rest with which it has become one for eternity in a way that would make the likes of Kirk Camron jealous. All of which to say, if you think about a chair's purpose in life, it's pretty simple: hold person up, comfortably. This one gets a community college B-minus on the latter and an utter fail on the former.

I bought this to use in my sewing area. It rolls beautifully and goes easily from sitting height to counter top height. Very comfy for sitting for long periods and extremely well made.

Kind of a weird shape and cheap cloth. It wasn't built as poorly as other chairs I've purchased online, but it's not comfortable enough to use for more than an hour or so at a time. It might be a better fit for someone with long legs?

I put the chair together with no issues until I loosened the footring. It locked up and would not tighten again after I adjusted height. Turned to the instruction, nothing about how to fix the issue. No instructions or information on HON website. I disassembled it and took the locking mechanism apart. I was able to loosen the inner ring. Put the locking mechanism back together and reassembled the chair. Working fine now. Seems like this could be a common issue and would expect HON to have info on how to deal with this.

Well made sturdy chair. Seat padding is very comfortable. The disappointment is the seat back which is non adjustable up or down or front to back. You need to sit back in a deeper seat to use it which takes you away from work surface. I mostly lean forward so I kept the chair. Would be nicer if you could occasionally sit back and rest while still staying in your work zone.

The chair works fine. The foot rest ring was a pain to install (the instructions were accurate and simple, but it kept binding and was difficult to twist), but went on correctly and has held its position fine for a couple of weeks. It seems important to get this right because if your legs are left dangling there will be pressure on the back of the thighs. Otherwise, the chair seems basic, but sturdy. I did go for the optional roller blade castors . . . they allow me to move the chair to or away from the desk with my hands (pushing / pulling on the desk) easily enough and would recommend them if you suspect that would be a likely use case. I have a GeekDesk, sit / stand desk that adjust between preset heights . . . but in the past year I added some large monitors that remain at a fixed height, so I leave the desk at the standing height. This has left me standing 8-10 hours a day, which has bothered me some. I wanted a chair tall enough that I could sit or stand without adjusting the desk. This almost gets there. At it's tallest position I can work at the desk while sitting and without adjusting the standing height, but lowering the desk height 2-3 inches works better . . . easy on this desk on which the height is adjusted by an electric motor, but if the desk was a fixed height this chair would have been a little short for its intended use.

Sturdy counter height HON swivel office stool

I bought 4 of these counter heights swivel stools. Honestly the quality has exceeded my expectation; first of all they feel heavy and sturdy, I was skeptical at first because they were upholstered in fabric not faux leather but I trusted HON's products are of good quality, they came in an individual carton box, very easy to put together. I love the seat cushion it's big and comfortable. I am happy with my purchase.
