This chair meets my needs perfectly as a student! It started with an affordable price, but the mesh back and adjustable lumbar support cushion work great at keeping my posture where it should be. Growing up, I always had a tendency to lean forward, and hunch over my desk, but everything from the seat back of this chair to the short arm rests helps me stay upright while I work for long hours at my desk. The only challenge with this product was assembly—I definitely encourage any new buyers to read the instructions diligently, as some parts can seem interchangeable but are not. Nonetheless, you assemble it once, and use it for a long time! Highly recommend
