- Pursuit Ergonomic Chair (Black) by Uplift Desk

Great investment

For the price, I think I expected a chair that would last longer than 7 years. 6’3 200lbs. Also the bottom cushion is almost no cushion so you’ll want to invest in a butt cushion

Great comfort for extended times

Excellent chair....as advertised!

I am a full time student and my program requires studying basically all day, every day. I am often in my office for 16 hours per day. I needed a chair that would be comfortable, supportive, and of quality so it lasts. I bought this chair because of the outstanding reviews. Unfortunately, I did not find it so outstanding. I am 5'10 and based on the reviews, this chair should have fit me well. It did not. It stopped halfway along my thigh length and caused my legs to start to go numb not long after sitting on it. Similarly, the seat cushion was wildly uncomfortable after a couple hours. The chair made my tail bone hurt and I felt like I was sitting on no foam at all. Super uncomfortable. The arm rests are also a hard plastic that would rub against my skin. I kept wanting to put a blanket under my arms to stop the constant skin burn I was getting. For such an expensive chair, I shouldn't have to put something under my arms to stop irritation. I will say that the actual back of the chair and headrest were quite nice. My back felt very supported and I did not have any problems with that portion of the chair. The adjustability was really nice to make it fit my body. Uplift gives you 30 days to "try" the chair with the option to return it during that time. In order to return it, you have to pay the return shipping, put the chair back in its original box and pack it with the original packing. The chair can also not be damaged in any way or they have the right to reduce your refund. I understand the not damaging the chair part. Fine. But paying for return shipping?! The size of the box makes all of the carriers (fedex, ups, usps) use the dimensions of the box instead of the weight for shipping costs. IT COST ME $160 WITH FEDEX GROUND TO RETURN THIS CHAIR (cheapest option). I even had a discount from fedex to make the return! So, without a discount, you will definitely be paying over $200 to return a chair that is over $300. Bad ploy from the company to make you keep their shit chairs. DO NOT BUY THIS CHAIR UNLESS YOU ARE 100% SURE YOU WANT TO KEEP IT AND IT WILL BE THE RIGHT FIT FOR YOU!!!!! THE COMPANY HAS A CRAP RETURN POLICY AND YOU PAY FOR ALL RETURN SHIPPING. Buyer beware!

I've had this chair for over a year and love it. The chair is very comfortable to sit in long term and I love how stylish it is as far as task chairs go. Full disclosure: We purchased the chair locally from the UPLIFT store in Austin. It's held up really well. I'm a photographer and edit photos so I need something that is good for long periods in front of a computer. I highly recommend this chair. I'm 5'9 and I have no trouble with the size. My husband is 6'0 and has never had issues with it either.

Last year I purchased a desk and this chair directly from Uplift. At first, I loved the chair. I liked the style, color, for me it was comfortable as I like a firmer seat. But the love soon faded as within a few weeks the chair started developing pops, creaks, and squeaks. Any time I recline the chair or put my head on the headrest there are distinct POP noises that are heard. Now I cannot swivel the chair in the slightest without it sounding like a creaky door opening! It is really quite a cheap product and that is disappointing. I do not recommend this chair.

After using this chair daily for the past 2 years, I can affirmatively conclude that it is designed for individuals shorter than 6ft (max 5'10"). The seat depth is insufficient for longer legs and the back support tapers towards the top. Both of the deficiencies create discomfort in the legs and shoulders/shoulder blades. Take the high reviews of this chair with a grain of salt. If you are spending more than $300 on a office chair, you deserve a chair that is equally as comfortable as it looks good.
