The wheels are the awesome solid rolling chair and it’s a solid chairI wish it went an inch or so lower but other that that it’s perfect. I have a long workbench that I slide around a-lot. This chair rolls like a dream, doesn't scuff the wood floors. Side note: The chair is super comfortable to me as a female, but my husband hates it.This chair is unusable for a man. The seat does not adjust for tilt and it's shape is very uncomfortable. It also goes up and down when you sit and get up, like a shock absorber effect. This is very annoying.Easy to assemble and the roller wheels are super smooth for moving around when sitting. Seat is comfortable and holds my body in a good position for proper alignment. Goes up and down easily. Great stoolISSUE 1: I'M TOO SHORT: I got this stool in an effort to improve my posture and comfort in my home-office set-up. I also love the aqua color and design, and that it can push under my desk to give me more floorspace in a small apartment. But I'm 5'4" (actually exactly 5'3-and-three-quarters). As a female, I don't consider myself 'short'. I would even have ignored advice that this stool doesn't work for 'short' people. But, seriously, even on the lowest setting (which is too low for my desk height) my feet cannot sit flat on the floor. I therefore can't stabilize the stool well, and I tend to roll backward. And I also find myself resting my feet on the stool rungs in weird twisted positions that then make my feet hurt. I'd estimate YOU NEED TO BE ABOUT 5'7" to comfortably, properly use this stool (at least if you plan to sit in it for long work hours). I have started wearing 3" heals to sit in it, and my feet are then anchored on the floor. But who wants to wear 3" heals in their home-office? So I just ordered separated foot rests and hope that solves the problem: https://www.amazon.com/Hotokii-Adjustable-Footrest-Ergonomic-Massaging/dp/B07S8PJPSB/ref=sr_1_14?dchild=1&keywords=individual+foot+rest&qid=1606509394&sr=8-14ISSUE 2: CAN'T REALLY WEAR A SKIRT The other detail I did not think of until (duh!) I attempted to straddle on one day when I happened to be wearing a skirt -- you can't sit on this in most skirts! Luckily, my stool is for home use where I don't usually wear a skirt, but any female who usually dresses in skirts or is considering this for office use, think about whether you wear skirts to work!I use this while grooming weeks are great. Rolls and maneuvers smoothly. Hard for the dog hair to get caught up in the wheels. Very comfortable tooA major car accident resulted in compression fractures in my back in 2017. I have permanent nerve damage and take medication for pain. I exercise. I alternate sitting, standing, walking all day, every day. I bought an expensive desk chair with lumbar support. I couldn't sit on it long without discomfort escalating to outright pain. I gave the chair away. On a whim, I decided to sit on my big red Pilate ball. That was pretty good, but it was unstable. It also needed occasionally inflation adjustment, which meant a search in the garage for the noisy machine that scared our dog. I'd given up looking for anything truly comfortable to sit on until a couple weeks ago when I had an ultrasound and noticed the tech sitting on a stool that resembled a saddle. I asked if her stool was comfortable. She said, "Yes! I love it!" and proceeded to tell me her supervisor ordered similar ones for everyone. I drove home hopeful and determined to find something like that and I did. I can only thank you for this life-changing stool. I sit on with joy every day. I still get up and move around because I've learned there's hours of pain in sitting or doing any one activity too long. I must continue sitting, standing, walking, elevating my legs in the recliner, repeat. But while I'm at the computer now, I am comfortable.One suggestion. A foot rest would be a nice addition.I bought a separate one for stability when using the Pilate ball for so long. But, for those who do not, a built-on one would be great.Thank you for making a comfortable stool for someone in my situation!I purchased this for a tattoo shop. After buying a regular stool I found out I needed something that would sit up taller. This was my solution. It was really easy to put together and it slides around well. I like the saddle seat and it is super comfortable. I think this is perfect for a tattoo shop as it is easy to use and small for storage. My only reasoning behind a 3 star is that it does bend the wheels and base. I'm only 185 lbs and its seems to already be caving in on me. I really hope it lasts me a few years as this was an expensive chair. I think everything about it is great except that the base is made of a soft metal. If they were to produce with a higher quality metal it would definitely be a 5 star product.Used for daily dental hygiene work, overall satisfied, the top is a bit big and gets in the way a tad, nothing that you cannot work around thoughtres robuste roulette roule bienBanc pour pianoThis stool is well worth the price! Well made. Stands up to the task. Hair does not build up on wheels. Best stool I've ever used in 45 years of cutting hair.Really comfortable
