La-Z-Boy Delano Big Tall Executive Office Chair Ergonomic Mid-Back Body Pillow Lumbar Support ComfortCore Memory Foam Cushion Mahogany

I have not been able to find a good office desk chair for years because I'm 6'3 250lbs and wear out the cushioning and tilt mechanism prematurely. Decided to spend double what I've ever spent on a chair with a brand name, Lazy Boy. Assembly was no problem except for the sheer weight of the pieces requires two people for an easy set. It is solidly built and the hardware is oversized as is the tool provided. Definitely better workmanship that the much cheaper office chairs from China I was buying. There's a lot more cushioning and it's in the right places including extra padding around the lumbar. If you have lower back problems, this is a good choice because the chair forces you to sit up straighter which is good for your posture. It is very comfortable and you can lean back easy enough but it doesn't recline far which is no good for your back anyway. Lazy Boy has been making quality chairs for decades and this good looking brown and weathered gray chair is classy and comfortable. Read more

This is an office chair nicer than the low-end stuff sold for under $200 at the office stores. Good: - Upholstery durability: This chair has stood up to day-long use for nearly an entire year by someone weighing over 135 kg (300 pounds). There is no sign of wear, cracking or splitting in the upholstery. This is one area where less expensive chairs quickly fail. - Cushioning is quite comfortable. - Mechanical durability: the main support has held up and swivels as well as the day I bought it. I have no sense that the mechanical parts of this chair have deteriorated. This is another area in which this chair shines versus less expensive chairs. Bad: - Main support is tilted enough to notice. For what it's worth, It hasn't gotten worse, so I think this is a manufacturing quality issue, not a part durability issue. I decided to live with it, but I believe some others would easily find this intolerable. Mixed / You Decide: - The arms are a little loose. They were fairly snug when first installed, and have loosened a bit since. They have not gotten bad, though, and do not seem to be worsening. Customer Support: - One of the original arms for my chair was chipped. I contacted the company and they sent a pair of new arms quickly and without fuss. For context, I am a long-time user of office chairs, from the cheap stuff sold at office supply stores, all the way to Herman-Miller Aeron chairs. UPDATE: This chair continues to see daily use. Now, starting year 5 of service, the upholstery is only beginning to crease. The slightly tilted main support (my chief complaint) hasn't gotten any worse, and the arms are no looser than when first installed. At little more than half the price, this chair has lasted much longer than the Herman-Miller Aeron chair it replaced. I am happy to upgrade this rating to 5 stars. Read more

I bought my last La-Z-Boy office chair almost 10 years ago and just now replaced it, obviously after that amount of time, they no longer make the one I had. This one is ok but isn't as comfortable or as feature ladened as my previous one. I had no trouble assembling it so idk if they've improved it since others posted but it was quick and easy. I needed a 2nd person to push down on the bottom of the seat while I attached it to the back bc it is very padded but other than that it was easily a one-person job. I'm only 5'4' but intentionally bought an oversized chair since my dog insists on sitting with me. I was concerned it would be too tall but even without putting it on the lowest setting my feet easily reach the floor. The seat itself is slightly wider than my last one but there's no noticeable difference in the depth which is disappointing. There are only two adjustable features, up & down and tilt. That's it. The tilt you can lock or unlock and tighten or loosen. In contrast, my previous chair had adjustable lumbar, adjustable headrest, multi-way adjustable arms, as well as tilt that actually changed & locked in, plus up & down of course. I knew this one wasn't as feature ladened, I only mention it bc if those features are important to you, at least 10 years ago, La-Z-Boy did offer them so you might want to keep looking. I didn't think they would matter to me but I'm already noticing their absence so we'll see... The leather looks & feels nice, we'll see how long it lasts. My previous one started cracking after 3 years but La-Z-Boy sent me a new cover for free! The base & armrests do appear to be solid wood & are a nice gray color that I like. Right now the wheels are extremely tight to roll but hopefully, that will loosen with time. The lumbar padding works fine for me so far, it's comfortable when I do sit back but I spend most of my time sitting up & don't use it much. At 5'4" my head reaches the top of the chair so anyone taller than that will be above the back of the chair, keep that in mind if you're looking for a headrest. Overall, I am happy with this purchase but not blown away like I was when I received my previous one 10 years ago & I'm not sure how it would fit someone who is actually big or tall. Read more
