Comfortable, goes together well, a couple of worries about longevity
Color: Matte-black
This is a chair with a lot to like, and a couple of concerns. Let's do the pros-and-cons thing.
Pros:
* Excellent assembly manual and parts organization. The manual is well-written; if it's translated from another language, it had a pass by a fluent English speaker. Folks, any time you localize, have a native speaker of whatever language you're going into give it a once-over. Also, the manual had a few ergonomic hints that will help with comfort. A nice touch.
* Comfortable. I'm not a huge guy (6'1" 240 lbs, yes I need to lose a little) but I do sometimes have fit trouble in a standard chair (mostly due to long legs rather than a wide... seating surface). This is a good chair for a tall person, but as the arms are outward adjustable at the time you build it (and with a little bolt turning after), this will also allow for folks who are plus-sized. You can also leave them off completely if you want (which isn't true of all office chair designs).
* Assembles well. Good fit and finish. All the bolt holes lined up, it was well packaged and arrived undamaged.
* The parts card includes one extra of every bolt type. This is very much appreciated, even though I didn't need the spares. Every flat-pack manufacturer should do this.
Cons:
* The seat cushion is very firm. I wouldn't describe it as "hard", and I understand why (the foam won't compress all the way to the seat pan for folks at the maximum weight range this chair is designed for). We'll see what it's like after a long day. Also, very stiff foam like this does tend to break down over time. Ask me again in a year.
* The support tubes for the leg rest seem flimsy, and the brackets through which the leg rest support tubes extend are plastic. I'm skeptical how much weight they can support, but I don't plan on using the leg rest anyway.
* The cushion that comes with it can be used for either neck or lumbar support, which is nice, but it's held on by an elastic band that attaches with a mechanism similar to some bras. It'll come off when you don't want it to (i.e. adjusting it) but is a pain to re-attach when you do want it to. Insert standard stand-up comedy joke here. A pinch-buckle would have been better.
* Cheap casters. But I ordered better ones, and it should be fine.
Note that the manual and box have different branding. That's not uncommon, as many things like this are sold under different brands even though the product is identical across the brands. Must be an Amazon/bookkeeping thing.
Overall, this seems to be a good chair. I like its appearance, it's comfortable so far, and assembling it wasn't a terrible ordeal. The price is also good for what you get. With the caveat of "let's see what longevity is like" and "better casters would be appreciated" I do recommend it.
