Chic, Comfortable, and Expensive Looking...
By ndarling
I'd been looking at several white desk chair options online and was having a difficult time making a decision. I didn't want to regret my purchase, and I was concerned about buying this lower priced chair for fear I would "get what I paid for". I finally settled on this as price won out, and crossed my fingers. Amazingly, I recieved this chair 2 days after ordering it. It was extremely easy and quick to assemble. Best of all, it's so beautiful! The faux leather is unexpectedly soft and the entire chair looks quite high end...certainly doesn't look under $200! It replaced an old black leather chair we'd had for years and I was worried this wouldn't be as comfortable, but surprisingly it is incredibly comfortable. Much more so than our old one. This added just the right chic and contemporary touch to our traditional dark wood office, a great combination. Very pleased with this purchase.

Great fabric and build, easy to assemble
By brainout
UPDATE 11/28/13, re-rated to 5 stars for longevity -- I just bought a second used red one, from kumisjojon Warehouse Deals! Yeah, it will last, baby. I hate all my other chairs, compared to this one. And you just know, when a really great product like this one is so well-liked, some dingdong in upper management decides to stop making it. So now I have two! Yes! And oh: the squeaky old office chair with the ugly black standard fabric and its 'executive' back, is probably going to the dumpster, unless I can use it as a caddy cart.UPDATE, 5/22/13 -- I edited the 'clammy' paragraph in the original review. The more I use this chair (which is constant, since it arrived), the more I like it. Probably spend 12 hours a day in the chair (yikes).UPDATE, 5/1/13 -- wow, I came back here to see if any more of the 'used' Alera Neratoli chairs were left, because I am so comfortable in this red one. There aren't any more. But if you search on the name, you'll find they come in black, red, white. Some of the reviewers say the white is off-white, which I was thinking of buying also. Alas, all the allegedly-used ones, are sold out. (The one I got, was sold with Prime from kumisjojon, and since it was open-box, it was listed under 'used', but wasn't ever used. There had been two of them, each for $100. I should have bought them both!)The last thing I need, is another chair; but when I really like something, suddenly it becomes hard to find.==========Rewrite, same day as original review. kumisjojon had two of these chairs in stock listed as 'used', thus priced at $100. So I bought one. Yet it doesn't look used. It was well packed. The fifth star is reserved for longevity evaluation, and I suspect it should be added. I wouldn't blink at paying $200 for a second chair. Wish I needed another.Assembly Observations====================Assembled all but the arms, during Windows 7 update (including reboot), and an Adobe Flash update. So what's that, 10 minutes? Including a 5-minute break? That time doesn't include arm assembly, but the latter would take another five minutes per arm. Very simple. Clever design!There are five assemblies: wheels to base, stem to base, chair to stem, then screwbolts for arms to chair. The chair body itself weighs 30+ pounds, so if you can't lift 30+ pounds from floor to shoulder height easily, then get help in chair assembly. You'll have to lift the chair body that high, to put it on the chair stem.This is one fantastic chair. You first push in the wheels. The chrome base has chrome sockets, and they are sautered onto the base. Which means, the thing would be easy to fix with duct-tape or resautering, if the original sautering breaks. The wheels are good quality, like from 15 years ago. Wheel covers are chrome, and get this -- have a blue plastic film exactly fitting the cover and of such a nice royal blue, I left the film on. (My other main decorating color, is royal blue.) To assemble wheels, turn base upside down then push in each wheel's socket HARD into the socket base, and fully (until the wheel is only stopped by the black casing lip). Else the chair won't be stable.The stem easily just fits into the socket on the five-starred base. Then just plop the chair on the stem (lift the chair shoulder high to match chair's stem hole to the stem).Now you have a full armless chair! Wow, it's comfortable. But in its default position, doesn't tilt back. To enable tilt, pull out the height adjustment lever; it easily pulls out about an inch. Push the lever in again, to stop tilt. Lever-out, the leanback is very like a rocking chair.If you want more lean-back tension (resistance to leaning), turn tension knob underneath the seat, RIGHT one turn at a time. Repeat, if you want more tension. For less tension, turn the knob LEFT one turn at a time. EDIT: the second chair I just assembled on 12/4/13, reverses the foregoing; so maybe you have to turn RIGHT to lessen tension, and LEFT to increase it.Hallelujah, it doesn't creak when you tilt back! No more client calls with a sudden apology for the noise!Height adjustment is as expected. Sit in the chair and push down the lever to lower, stand up and pull up the lever to raise. Lowest height is 15" from floor to bottom of chrome seat edge (measured from the middle of the seat, to carpeted floor). Highest, is about 18".Assembling the arms is simple: two Allen aka socket bolts per side, with decorative caps, all metal; the Allen wrench is also included, exactly fits the sockets on the bolts. The bolt size looks standard: 2" long, not including the head. What's great about that, is if somehow the bolt broke, you could replace the bolt with stuff from the hardware store of the same length and thickness, because the bolts stick outside the chair (just barely, not flatheads). Kinda like car license plate bolts. The arms assemble outside the seat, so the seat clearance is effectively increased by 1-2 inches. Disassembly is easy. So you've got two chairs in one.Arm assembly hint: first put the bolts in their arm holes, prior to assembly, make sure that the screws go all the way inside their holes, recessed. If the bolt head is level with the edge of the hole (not recessed), you inserted the bolt in the wrong side. In short, the right hand arm versus the left hand arm are discernible by this simple test. Turn chair sideways to assemble the arms.Remember the mechanic's attachment trick of turning the bolt/screw in a few times just to make sure it's properly seated in the chair's hole, then a few more times but not totally tightened; then do the other screw. Finally, when the chair arm is properly seated and aligned with BOTH bolts, tighten.Best of all, the pieces disassemble for moving your apartment/house to a new location. Yeah, this chair is a keeper.The typical Allen wrench provided for bookcases, is used and provided in the chair's bolt kit. Included, is one extra bolt and one extra cap.Arm Padding is about 1/3" inch, strong, reminiscent of camp foam. Arms are slightly curved, which I don't like, but they aren't uncomfortable. Can't adjust arm height, unless you drill more holes into the chrome. Each armpiece is one metal unit (excepting the pad), so any drilled holes to adjust height, must be precise, and will change arm declination. The arm pads are socket-bolted to the arm, but the socket is an asterisk pattern, so you can't use the Allen wrench provided. Because the arm is curved, they are not replaceable, though I imagine you could buy spare parts from Alera? Then again, you could wrap or bolt any soft material to replace the arms, if you wanted.Color, appearance, etc.====================Red Chair color is a matte red, like old-fashioned lipstick. Seems orangey, but really isn't. It's a real red. Not too strong, not bright, and not much different from the picture. It just seems a bit lighter than the picture shows. Yeah, waxy lipstick red. Not quite fire-engine red or tomato red. Somewhere in between. Not crimson. Very attractive.Fabric is single-stitched, but well done. There is a horseshoe zipper under the seat. Thus you can easily reach the big spring connecting the chair for any repairs, lubrication (to avoid that horrendous creak). That zippered feature is a plus.Chair's base is chrome; not the best quality (it has that bluish cast like cheap bolts); but good enough for long life.The chair's covering material feels good, and is about 1/16" inch thick. It is made in China. Chair's underside label calls it 'polyurethane', and nowhere claims that leather is used anywhere. The same material is claimed for the cushions, which are dense foam and unlikely to flatten, consistency and spring-back is very like camp foam. Cushion is about 1" thick, which given the consistency, works like 2". I've sat in it for hours now, without being sore. Very comfortable.In other words, no label on the chair claims it's leather, but of course the label here in kumisjojon for the product, does say that. Should say 'leather-like', to be more honest.Like leather, this material might be clammy in very cold weather, and maybe a bit sticky in hot weather. Solution is to throw a towel over it, or change your heat/air conditioner temperature. However, (now 5/25/13), we've had very hot Houston weather for two weeks; the chair isn't at all sticky, even when I forgot to turn on the air conditioner for several days. Some of the nights were cold enough to turn on the heat (maybe 55 degrees), and there was no clamminess. Your results might differ.There is a very mild leather-like smell. So whatever you want to call it, the fabric is wonderful. I don't understand why people report sliding problems. The surface is not slide-y at all. (Proper English term is 'slippery', yet that term seems inadequate here: hence the neologism.)Clean with a damp cloth. If you must, use a mild dish detergent, but don't put it directly on the material, but on the cloth, first. Washcloth seems best. Dry quickly, don't let it sit wet, to preserve the springy quality of the material. Don't use Formula 409 or alcohol, that will dry out the material and eventually make it crack. Don't use oil.Seat cushion is 18.5" square (width and depth), So if you have long thighs, your legs will stick out. Cushion is about 2" high. Springy.Chair back is tapered, so 17" wide at the top. Back height from top of chair cushion to seat cushion is 21.5". If you were sitting in the chair, you'd get about an inch more 'top' (back coverage). It falls just below my shoulders when I sit in the chair, and I'm of average height.You'd not get lumbar support unless you sat flush against the back of the chair, but it is comfortable. (Lumbar chairs either pouch forward the bottom portion of the backside, or the upper portion of the back. This one is the former style, idea being to encourage good posture.)Will report later on chair utility and longevity; that's why for now, it's rated as four stars instead of five. Frankly, I can't see how this chair will fail that test, either, but I just got it. I can't come up with any negative remarks about this chair. Very surprised.Feel free to comment. Why? I value kumisjojon reviews with an 80% weight in my own purchasing decisions. So I want to help.
