Why Steelcase Series 1 is the Ultimate Solution for Your Office Needs


  • Nice chair
Color: Scarlet Style: Carpet Casters Pattern Name: Chair
Good: Just about everything. Attractive design; easy to assemble; reasonably lightweight; easy to adjust; well-ventilated; comfortable in extended use; good price relative to similar chairs. Bad: The tops of the armrests move forward and back, left and right, very easily, with no way to lock them in place. More annoying than useful. The recliner allegedly has three settings plus lock. I can find no difference in the settings, all three let the back recline with too little pressure. I ended up locking the back in place. Bottom line: This replaced a 30-year-old midrange office chair that was on its last legs. Even allowing for age, the difference in adjustability and "sit" is obvious. Plus, this one doesn't creak every time I move. It isn't an Aeron, but it's closer than the one-third-the-price tag would suggest. I'm happy with it. Five stars. ... show more

  • Budget Friendly and I like the quality
Color: Nickel Style: Carpet Casters Pattern Name: Chair
I work 8-10hr days in front of my PC, plus a little gaming. I'm short and stocky. My previous chair was a cheap no name brand that I received as a gift. It retails around $150 on amazon. After 1 yr of ownership, everything about that old chair was just negative and I won't detail here. With regards to this new chair, it's been only 1 day, but I felt compelled to write a review as I think I hit the jackpot. Pros Quiet! Hopefully it stays that way Firm and comfortable seat (for me) Hopefully holds up over time. Carpet casters roll well on my carpet Simple to put together, took 3 min. and 2 mins of that was opening the box. Cons Price, I still hate that I paid $500 for a chair but if this chair is solid in the long run, it will be worth every penny. I find the tops of the armrests swivel too much, wish they could be locked in place. Will update if this chair doesn't hold up over time. ... show more

  • Don't be scared! (Long and honest review)
Color: Licorice Style: Carpet Casters Pattern Name: Solid
I work in an office where we have literally thousands of Steelcase Leap chairs. I've seen people abuse there's by spilling coffee, green smoothies, and yogurt on them. I've seen them used as step stools and used in 'chair races'. I've personally been using the same one for going on 4 years and I have *never* seen one break to the point of being unusable or beyond the point of repair. I also have an Interior Design degree specializing in Commercial office design and have a lot of respect for the Steelcase brand. That being said, I'm not prepared to spend $950 on a Leap chair...eek. While totally worth it, in my opinion, I wanted something a little cheaper for my home office. About 3 months ago I started having problems with my left hip. Like a lot of people, I was using a desk chair I had purchased at Office Depot...my 3rd in 5 years...and the seat was aggravating my hip. I knew I needed a good quality chair and I had noticed my hip NEVER hurt while at work using my Leap chair. I wanted to give Steelcase a shot. After looking at several Steelcase options, I came across the Series 1 and thought it hit all my high points - lower lumbar support, adjustments for seat depth and seat height, and adjustable arms. And best of all the price wasn't super ridiculous. I had been paying around $150 per chair I bought at Office Depot - 3 chairs totaling $450 - the $430 for the Series 1 didn't look so bad. So I took a chance on a $430 chair that had zero reviews. :) It came fully put together in a large box. It was secured well enough and there was no damage in shipping to the chair. The chair is also super light weight so it was no problem hauling it upstairs fully assembled. It has a nice firm seat that is comfortable and has helped immensely with my hip pain. And while the lumbar support isn't quite as strong as I like, it does give support and I really like the shape of the back of the chair. It feels molded to my back and the mesh is very breathable. The only negative I can give this chair is the arms feel a little flimsy. I feel like I need to be careful with how much pressure I put on the arms getting up and down for fear they might weaken over time. No issues as of yet though. TLDR? I sincerely wish I could give this a 4.5! I feel that would be perfect and very fair. I can't in good conscious give it a full 5 stars because of the arms, but I feel this is a great chair and worth the higher price tag. I would absolutely recommend this to anyone that wants a good quality chair by a respected name that will last for several years. ... show more

  • Really, really good. Armrests are hard as rocks, though.
Color: Graphite Style: Carpet Casters Pattern Name: Chair
Very comfortable. Lots of adjustments so you can find the right fit. Been using mine a lot. Been using one for 18 months and one for 6 months. Still look new. I'm 6'1" 250lbs so this chair has not had the easiest life. Very sturdy. Only downside is that the armrests are hard as rocks. Your elbows are going to get sore... fast. However, that is easily fixable with aftermarket armrest covers. Lots of options if you search for "Neoprene Chair Arm Pad Covers" or similar. I tried a few and these are the best blend of fit and comfort. Unlike some of the others they look like they are part of the chair and not some weird aftermarket thing. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01BXBQ5AI I'm torn about giving this five stars. One one hand... it's not cheap, and this is a lot of money to pay for something with rock hard arm rests. On the other hand... it's easy to fix and even if you pay a few bucks for the aftermarket arm rests... this is STILL a bargain compared to other high end office chairs which are easily over 1K dollars. Let me put it this way... after buying the first one I was happy to buy a second. That's the ultimate endorsement right? ... show more

  • Love at first sit
Color: Licorice Style: Carpet Casters Pattern Name: Solid
Right when I sat on this I could tell the cost was well worth it! I never knew how much my previous chair hurt my back until I sat in this and felt the support it provides! Everything is adjustable to fit your body perfectly. It glides across my carpet easily, looks sharp, and had no issues with sturdiness or noise. I would highly recommend picking this up if you would like a nice chair that isn't $2,000! ... show more
