High hopes, but let down

Pros: nice looking, nice leather
Cons: cheap tilt base that breaks, definitely not rated to 450 lbs
"I weigh around 260-270lbs and have had problems finding chars that were rated higher than 250lbs. With previous chairs, the tilting base would eventually start to sag to the left side due to the build design. Basically if you lean back in the chairs a lot, they eventually start to give out only on one side because there is a washer that is cheap and starts to break/compress.
After going through a 2 chairs like that, I decided it would we worth the money to get a chair rated waaaay over what I weight just to ensure that problem wouldn't occur. To my disappointment, this chair ended up having the same problem, though it did last longer than the others. I'd be willing to be that if you have one of these and inspect it, you will notice that the left side sags lower than the right after using it a few months.
I really liked this chair and hoped I had found a winner, but sadly it's just another chair with a cheaply made tilt base that will just end up falling apart. Definitely not recommended."

excellent chair

Pros: well worth the money
Cons: loose packaging on bolts
Model Number: RV45LS10C
"I just bought this chair and it is so wonderful. It was easy to put togeather, took about 45 min. to an hour. I was kind of surprised at how many parts there were though, didn't expect that. At first we thought I was missing 3 bolts but found them later in another package slot. It had been opened by someone else...1 was loose in the box.
But I have to say...this chair is so soft to sit in. Very comfortable !!!! I would recomend this chair to anyone. Thanks Costco !!!

Mostly fit my needs, and economically

Pros: heavy duty metal arm & legs, wide if you need that, heavily cushioned
Cons: low maximum height, not easiest to roll on carpet, sometimes does not recline
Model Number: RV45LS10C
"Needed a chair with extra cushioning that was also heavy duty, and did not want to spend megabucks for Hon, etc. Did not need the extra ~1" of width, but did not mind. This chair generally fit the bill. With a few tweeks for maximum height and recline, this would be perfect. I would then consider it as standard office chair, even given the extra width."

big chair

Pros: it is built like a tank and it is very sturdy
Cons: hard to assemble
"Putting this chair together was very difficult. It can not be done by one person. The seat is not as comfortable as I thought it should be."
