Office / Chairs / MY CHEAP OFFICE MAX CHAIR

cheap review chairs image office chairs std image

I was in the mood to change my den around so after reading (again!) great reviews on SR I found the corner desk that would be perfect in the small den that I have. I went to Ikea and bought it. Now I needed a new chair because the desk was black and the only chair I had was oak, not going to work!

I did see a really cool cloth chair at Ikea for $79 but my daughter said, why don't you wait and check out Office Max, I have seen some really nice chair there cheaper. Just a short note I just don't think she wanted me to buy anything more because she had to help me unload all this stuff, but I thought she might be right and I really wasn't that in love with the chair.

After I got home and set the desk up I went on my mission to find my chair. My daughter was right I headed to Office Max and at first every chair I saw in there was over $100, I kept thinking I should have bought the one at Ikea, but then I saw it. This was going to be pefect for my new desk.

This is a simple black leather desk chair. It is an Office Max brand, it is adjustable to many height by just picking up on he leaver. It has wheels that roll really well on the carpeting and the back support, even though it doesn't look every comforatble is. I can sit in this chair for hours (voting!) and not get a sore back.

The best part of the chair was it was $39.00. When I picked out the chair they said it would be $5.00 for them to put it together, I was going to save the $5 and do it myself, I just finisehd putting my whole corner desk together this shoud be a breeze, but when they didn't have any left in stock, they just gave me the one off the floor. The salesperson told me she knew for a fact that they had just put it out that morning because she put it together.

This is a great chair for any desk, comfortable and sturdy. I didn't give it a 5 for durability because I haven't had it long enough to know but I am pretty sure it is going to last me a long time.

  • I am in the process of looking for a chair to go in my craft room. The one I have there now sinks everytime I sit in it. In an hour or so I look like a little kid peering over the top of my desk because I am so low. I did not want to spend a huge amount of money but it had to be comfortable. This one sounds great. I am going to go to office max and check this one out.
