🚀 Abunda's Overview

This is our summary and key points to consider based on customer reviews.

Many found this chair to be a good basic option for the price, with reviews complimenting its comfort during extended usage. However, some buyers reported that assembly could be challenging, requiring two people for best results, and that it might not be well-suited to taller or larger individuals. Additionally, some reviewers mentioned that the back of the chair was devoid of cushioning, which some resolved by adding their own padding.

Pros

  • 👍 Comfortable for extended usage
  • 👍 Solid basic chair at an affordable price
  • 👍 Some users appreciated the clever packaging
  • 👍 Memory foam pad can be added for extra comfort

Cons

  • 👎 Assembly can be challenging and could require two people
  • 👎 Chair may not suit taller or larger individuals
  • 👎 Some found the back of the chair lacks cushioning
  • 👎 One buyer reported that the chair started to sink after 3 months

Should I Buy It?

If you need a basic chair that is comfortable for extended use and are able to assemble it, this product has good value for its price. However, if you are taller or larger, or need a chair with a fully cushioned back, you might want to consider other options.

    • Another Amazon Basics Great Value For The Budget & Simple-Minded
Color: Cream
This replaced a second hand desk chair which was losing all of it's adjustability options. And though the seat back holder was metal, it was starting to crack, and had me leaning back more and more, so I had to get a new chair. Which brought me to this chair for my home computer desk... Not as many adjustment options on this one (just the raise/lower and the slight recline lock on/off), but I wasn't expecting that on this budget-minded chair. At least the maximum pitch of the recline option is on par with your average airline seat, which is far better than my older, rickety chair. The entire chair is upholstered in a easy-to-clean leather-like fabric (no mesh anywhere), which I believe will survive scratching cats than meshy fabrics. The back support is comfy-sturdy, but has an accessible inner cavity (more on this later) and the seat is also cushioned well. The legs and the base are all metal, including the five leg coverings. The plastic sections that shroud the pneumatic lift are flimsier plastic sheaths. The armrests are non-adjustable and a bit shoter than my old chair. Minimal softer plastic-like cushioning on the armrests, but I'm fine with that. My only real issue about this chair is the cheap plastic armrest caps which cover the bolt assemblies between the armrests and the seats and seat backs -- they randomly pop off -- but it shouldn't be an issue unless you are anal about the cosmetic look about the chair. Assembly was fairly easy, with all the tools, nuts, bolts and screws were all grouped and labled in a sturdy "blister pack" (think OTC cold capsule packaging at the drug store). *** ABOUT THE BACKREST CAVITY -- NOTE *** This is where Amazon Basics saves packaging space. Your delivery box may look a bit on the smaller side. Don't worry! Much of the chair assembly (legs, tools, caps,etc...) is stored INSIDE the backrest during shipping. All you need to do is to unzip the contents from that cavity and voila! Everything is there. There should be red ribbons and/or strips RED tape to remind you the essentials are zipped up in the cavity. Once everything is out of the inside of the backrest, you theoretically can add more cushioning, back massager or similar -- although I haven't needed to do it yet. 4 stars due to the flimsy plastic caps and lift sheaths. But again, that is just cosmetic stuff and not durability issues. ... show more

This desk chair has been a great upgrade for my workspace! The cushioning is thick and comfortable, and the faux leather feels smooth and high-quality. It offers great back support; the armrests are positioned just right. Stylish, sturdy, and perfect for both work and relaxation. Highly recommend!

    • Survived 4 1/2 years!
Color: Cream
Great chair that has survived for about 4 1/2 years! The material on the arms is starting to peel sadly - but it was great while it lasted. The back is better for a shorter lady like me - not sure a taller person would find it comfortable, but I like this chair. Just wish the arm material wasn't falling apart - it's all over my floor every day and the cats eat it if I don't clean up. Again, great chair and lasted awhile. ... show more

I’m really impressed with this Amazon Basics office chair! The Puresoft padding feels smooth and comfortable, even after long hours at my desk. The height adjustment works perfectly, and the mid-back design provides just the right amount of support for everyday use. It’s easy to assemble and looks sleek in my workspace — simple yet professional. For the price, the quality is excellent. Highly recommend it for anyone looking for an affordable and comfortable office chair! 💺✨ ... show more

I just put this together yesterday in less than 45 minutes and it seems to be great for the price. It is comfortable. I might add extra support in the back cushion ...time will tell!

    • 18 Months of Mediocrity: This Chair Is Falling Apart and So Is My Patience
Color: Black
Let me save you the time, money, and lower-back regret: do not buy this chair. At first glance, like a gas station breakfast sandwich, the Amazon Basics "Classic Puresoft PU" office chair looks harmless enough. A decent price, clean lines, and a name long enough to sound like someone tried really hard. But don’t be fooled. After living with this chair for 18 months, I can confidently say that calling it “basic” is generous. This thing is a slow-motion ergonomic tragedy. I'm not even a heavy user...this chair sits at a home desk, not a call center and yet it’s falling apart like a toddler’s Lego tower. Comfort: For the first week or two, the chair is passably comfortable. Then the padding compresses, the seat flattens like a pancake at a truck stop diner, and every hour feels like you're being punished for a crime you didn’t commit. The back support? Non-existent. I’d get more lumbar support leaning against a wall. Sitting in this chair for more than an hour at a time feels like penance and no amount of adjusting will save you. Adjustability: Sure, it adjusts up and down. That’s about where the good news ends. The tilt mechanism is laughable — either it’s locked upright like a church pew, or it reclines with all the grace and stability of a shopping cart with a broken wheel. The tension knob? Pure decoration. Turning it does about as much as yelling at a thunderstorm. Durability: After only 18 months, mine is literally falling apart. The seat cushion is collapsing. One of the casters feels like it’s about to snap off. The armrests creak under minimal pressure. It feels wobbly, unstable, and generally unfit for long-term use. This chair was designed to die young. Style: Deceptively Bland It tries to look sleek and minimal, but really it just screams “budget bulk order.” There’s nothing classic about this thing, and the Puresoft name is a masterclass in ironic branding — it’s about as “pure” and “soft” as a gravel driveway. Are there any Pros? I Guess It Technically Exists * It was easy to assemble. * It did, technically, hold my body off the floor for over a year. * That’s it. That’s the list. Final Verdict: If you're looking for a short-term chair for a rental office you never plan to return to, or maybe need to furnish the background of a Zoom call, maybe this will do. But if you actually plan to sit in it regularly? Don’t do it. You’re better off buying a decent secondhand chair on Craigslist. Or honestly, sitting on a milk crate. This chair is a monument to the bare minimum. It’s uncomfortable, poorly built, aging faster than unrefrigerated mayonnaise and destined for the landfill before its second birthday. 1/5 stars. Would give zero if I could. ... show more
