Porthos Home Selma Office Chair, Faux Leather Upholstery, Height Adjustable, 360-degree Swivel, Central Tilt System

I was trying to "adultize" my apartment and toss out some kitschy gamer chair stuff. Found this chair, looks matched the theme I was going for very well. Ordered, put together, and sitting at my desk right now and it's pretty comfortable. Was a little worried it wouldn't have any tilt or would be uncomfortable without a higher back, but neither seems to be an actual concern in practice. Also for what it's worth, the looks are ON POINT. Would buy again. Hopefully it holds up over time.

If you only use this a 1-2 hours a day, it’s fine, but not super comfy. Looks great though and happy with the quality.

We bought two of these to complement four regular "Porthos Executive Office Chairs" which have more flair in a similar style. But these have a more traditional shape and ergonomics so they naturally fit more people and feel more comfortable to sit in longer. Still not what I would call a task chair as they only have height adjustment, but fine for a few hours in a meeting. While they aren't as sleek looking, they're still more unique looking than your typical offcie chair, and make up for it in usability. (I can see a fight might ensue about who gets to sit in these two for longer meetings!)

I bought this chair for "every day" use (8 hours a day, 5 days a week). It was comfortable at first, but after a few months, it was very uncomfortable. I started getting a weird pain in my legs. I switched to a different chair and I was fine. I switched back (out of curiosity) and it re-appeared. I have never had this problem with any other chair and have not had it since I permanently got rid of this. It looks great and if you are only using it for an hour here or there, I am sure it is fine. But not for long term.

I’m not a complainer. The chair is great in a lot of ways; looks good, comfortable, has support, East to assemble. My qualms come after assembly. Three days after I put this together, it started making some effed up noises. It was squeaky, sounded like something was breaking, and just plain annoying. I continually tightened screws, etc. Doesn't help. Like the chair, hate the annoyance.

Furniture online can be a gamble. The chair looks fantastic and was incredibly easy to assemble. However, when I shift my weight (135lbs) even slightly in the seat it is so noisy that I can barely hear myself think — as it is distracting for clients on the phone — I try to remain still. Keep in mind that with a vinyl seat, wearing shorts or a skirt in summer you need to detach yourself from the seat on occasion – but not when you're on the phone! Leans back only a little but the agonizing sounds it makes when you do will make you never lean back again. Wheels are quiet when you roll around. Taking it apart and sending back would be virtually impossible as the box was ripped down the side on delivery — I was very lucky that all the pieces were still inside and no obvious damage. Yes, I tried WD-40.

I bought this chair to be at my desk for working at home or sewing. It took me about 20 minutes to assemble myself while i was watching TV one night. It’s comfortable, and rolls easily, and has good height options. It looks classy and the materials have held up great so far - I’ve had it for about 2-3 months so far and use it almost every day.

Initial impressions - The chair arrived in perfect shape. Reasonably easy to put together. The wheels insert was the hardest part but I will replace them with nylon chair sliders when I get 5. I did use LockTite on the screws and some Goop under the pieces that I had to attach all in response to complaints of loud squeaks - so will see after I've use it for a while. It matches my LR furniture, esp. desk, really well which is important to me - now if it holds up for a few years.
