  • Maybe cheapest ever for no arms version?

  • +1

    Can arms be taken off the armed and dangerous version?

    EDIT: Found comment from previous deal in Sept that said they are removable.

    thats the best price I can recall …

    Don't know much about chairs. Are these any good for 3-4hr stints?

    • +7

      You will forget you're even sitting down

      I'm in mine for about 10hrs a day.Great chair.

    • Very comfy. Makes it hard to sit in regular office chairs when I'm at work.

    For anyone who owns this chair, does it make your head feel like it lacks support? Not sure about others, but it's an issue that I often have with high backed chairs with no head rests. Low back is fine.

    • +3

      Then its not an issue of support for head… cuse as you said, its not an issue with low back…

      The issue is because of the length of the chair you are tempted to rest your head but you go against the temptation cuse you are working and cannot work with your head tilted and then you start feeling the discomfort cuse you were supposed to rest your head, but you arent.. and .. and… What was I talking about?

  • Just ordered two. $11 total delivery for both was pretty good.

    Ozbargain's official desk chair!

    • Does that mean if I see anywhere with one of these chair, then the owner probably have nothing much better to do but keep refreshing this site just to wait for some bargain deal to come up?! Just like me………

      • Not at all. Deals on this chair have come up plenty of times in the past and there have been many opportunities to buy one as it normally doesn't sell out in record time. It's also generally well received so I assume word of mouth has probably helped sales too.

        In my opinion, somebody who has excess SD cards, Xiaomi products, old Eneloop batteries, Woodworm umbrella's and now 'fart' bombs would be more of a sign of somebody whose a possible addict.

    Ordered one. Free delivery was nice.
    I have been looking for a deal on this model, so thanks OP

  • I can't see where you put in the code before submitting credit card details?

    • If I remember correctly it was the same page as the CC details. I could be wrong though. It was REALLY obvious though.

    • you have to have an account to put in the code you cannot put the code in as a guest

      • Thanks

  • hmm - this or the metro ii with no arms - anyone care to comment?

    • I like arm rests but it's a personal choice. Apparently no armrests is considered better from an OHS perspective …. but I don't care I want my armrests!!

    • Mind to share the link for metro ii?

  • I'm gonna try this chair as my Super Cheap chair is not very comphy and i'm getting a sore butt.

  • OP you should probably update description to note free delivery is only metro areas.

    http://www.staples.com.au/page/free-delivery

  • Great price, thanks, ordered one :-)

  • What is anyone's experience with returns? I'd like to fork out to try this chair but would like the right to return if not satisfied. I read change of mind policy but it said goods must be unopened.

    I bought this chair couple of weeks ago. Delivery was quick from Staples but heavy box. Chair is quite easy to assemble and it comes with all the tools to assemble it. It is very comfortable and there are quite a few settings to get the right adjustment to suit you. We have expensive chairs at work but this one is way better than anything at my work. I highly recommend it.

    Cool I am going to claim this on the NSW Worksafe Small Business Rebate

  • Don't forget cashback!

    • ….I forgot, I'll loose my AAA Oz bargain rating for this oversight.

  • +1

    This is a good no bullsh*t chair. No wobbly bits, nice and comfortable. Got it after I was sick of cycling through cheaper chairs, no regrets.

  • Thanks OP

  • I bought this a week or so ago. Down to $249 and shipping I think was $30. Fully adjustable, mesh and also has head support which I truly appreciate. Not sure how it compares in quality, but it looks better and just a few dollars more;

    • Looks nice! no recent reviews only 3 in the last 3 years all the rest are from 2011 and before.

    • Looks a little too wanky for my liking. I'd feel like siting in a dentist's chair.

  • I purchased this chair from Officeworks https://imgur.com/a/xnJFs probably 1-2 years ago it gives me a sore bum if I sit on it too long lol but I like how I can swing back and put my feet up on the bench :)

    How would this chair on sale compare with such good reviews I am thinking of purchasing I'm sure my bum would thank me for it hehe

  • Thanks OP have been waiting awhile to snare one of these for a good price. I now have 2, and a redundant cheapo officeworks chair.

  • Has anyone compared this to the Herman Miller chairs?

    • Nothing compares to herman miller chairs.

    • Yep. Not as good but given they are anywhere from 1/3rd to 1/5th the price it's probably not a fair comparison

  • I finally bought one, i hope its not bad leaning against it looks like it would hurt are these good support for backs?

  • Thanks OP. Purchased one

  • +1

    Would this be good for desktop PC 5-hour gaming sessions? Serious question.

    • It's probably a lot better than those 'gaming' chairs. These are designed for extended sitting.

      • +1

        Hmmm, interesting. Can anyone else share their experience?

  • I enquired about what happens if I didn't find it comfortable as in returning it the call centre agent couldn't answer the question and there was no one from Staples to answer it either so a case created and will be responded in 24 hours.

  • For anyone who wants to know, I rung the call centre to ask if this particular chair is an ergonomic chair. They said it is. Bit confusing when they don't specify that on their site for some reason.

  • Based on all the positive reviews about this chair I ended up taking the leap and just ordered thought id get them to assemble it with 20% off lol so lazy :P

    • I submitted my purchased 15 minutes ago - stock levels went down from 9 to 8, so be interesting to see whether they sell out before midnight :)

      • They have sold lots!

        I added it to my cart at 2:00pm and the stock was at 36 going down Im like noooooo not going to get one then I looked again around 2:30 stock was upto 243 as I was waiting for money to transfer into my bank account so im sure they have plenty and it shows just how many they have sold today.

  • Where do you put the code?

    • +1

      You have to login/create an account to enter a coupon if you haven't done so already, then it's on the first page of the checkout.

  • +1

    Thanks OP, finally got one. Hopefully quality will be good! and the coupon code field should be on the first checkout page located on the top right of the page.

  • +1

    Is this a replica of Herman Miller?

    • I'm also curious to know if this is comparable to the Herman Miller SAYL chair which is quite pricey

      • me too , waiting for bargainers' advice

      • Herman Miller mesh is much better. This one feels harder and not as smooth. Also the plastic texture in Herman Miller looks better. This one looks cheap and weak.

  • Damn you Ozbargain, damn you to hell. My credit card did not need this after all the other sales, but I was too weak to resist.

  • Oh no! I just ordered it yesterday from staples for $259 with the fy40 coupon.
    Cant even call them now :(

  • +2

    This chair is quite sturdy and comfortable, but it also has a terrible chemical smell that lasts months, and permeates your clothes.

  • All the comments are positive. I'm sold! Just got one!

  • Is this the same chair Michael Burry has in the movie, The Big Short?

  • Bit the bullet and ordered it.

    Does Staples send out a confirmation e-mail after ordering? I didn't get one.

    • No confirmation email for me either. Great deal though and happily purchased!

      • It took about 10-15 minutes for me to get my confirmation e-mail.
        Also this chair is now sold out!

        • I think it's dependent on region. When logged out, it shows 180 in stock. When I log in, it shows 30.

        • @mudkipz:

          Yep sounds like it…I'm in Adelaide so any Adelaideans that wanted this deal are SOL.

    • I never got one, I signed in using facebook tho could be why?

  • Just got one! Says 20 left in stock, I'm in Victoria in case it's region specific.

  • Picked up one, I've been thinking about a chair for months. With all the positive reviews, how could I resist!

  • Wow 14 left, I was expecting them to be sold out.

    • Sold out now :(

  • For those who have also tried IKEA's MARCUS office chair (cloth version) at $199, how does this chair compare?

    MARCUS Office Chair (IKEA)
    http://www.ikea.com/au/en/catalog/products/50137208/#/202611…

    • looks bad

      • Sorry, should have clarified: how does this chair compare in terms of comfort?

        My sister has a MARCUS chair, and it's really damn comfy, but I haven't tried to sit in it for hours yet.

  • Damn I was going to buy one of these in the morning :(

    • Still showing 17 in stock for me if you are in Melbourne and code is still working so double check :)

      • Yeah but I think the code won't work any more. Worth a try though

  • Shows 6 in stock for me in perth but the price is $349.00 :O

  • Nice chair, I highly recommend :)

  • Received and assembled today.

    Anyone else find the chair a little squeaky?

    • No squeak with mine but the seat cushion noticeably slopes to the back-right. Decent amount of movement with the backrest also which i'm not that keen on. How's your seat cushion?

  • Returned to Warehouse05-07-2016 08:45amDelivery Unsuccessful04-07-2016 08:48pmOn Board with Driver04-07-2016 11:19am what the???????

    • Yeah same here, im like 100% sure the driver contracted with the delivery just didnt even attempt deliver mine because i live about an hour away from their depot. Authority to leave was ticked too, Im pretty annoyed, but it wouldnt be the first time a driver has decided to skip my house.

      I called and complained, now waiting to hear back from their Warehouse manager with an explaination as to why its back in their warehouse.

      • Same i emailed them

      • their going to re deliver, this place seems doggy or at least the carrier their using.

        • All I got was "Our delivery team will contact you tomorrow", I had to call a 2nd time to even talk about re-delivery, the first customer service rep didn't even get back to me as to why it never got delivered or even attempted for delivery. sigh Looks like another day of sitting on the exercise ball. At least the 2nd rep gave me a case number. Definitely going to send in a complaint, because i want an explanation as to why no delivery attempt was made.

        • @Kamui: does your house have stairs at front door? mine does could be why lazy driver?

        • @shadowrukia:
          Nope, but we both live in Vic. My house is just right off the Monash freeway, so I don't understand why the driver was so lazy. My house was probably just too far of a drive for them/would've made them wait in peak hour freeway traffic for ages to get back to depot. My area is still metro, the 2nd largest shopping center in Aus is right next door to me.

          Definitely dropping a complaint in customer feedback to them in hopes this doesn't happen to other people.

        • @Kamui: they didnt bloody resend my chair like they said they would!

        • @shadowrukia:
          Yeah I got an email from support saying they will be delivering it Thursday afternoon. I just find it annoying that they didn't expedite my chair, when it's their fault that they didn't even attempt to deliver it on Monday.

        • @Kamui: i still dont have it

  • Did anyone receive any conformation (Other than the 'Sales order confirmation') that the chair is on its way or similar?

    • nope

  • I'm not going to go into details as can't be bothered writing a long post but this is the first time I have ordered from them and will be last these guys have no customer service at all and they couldn't organise a root in a brothel.
