Valent chair (Tester: 172 cm, 67 kg); one should not be smaller!

[___ ___ Delivery]
Although the chair has to be put together, you get a great package: 80x60x37 cm. (Still had my package a protuberance, one end of Stahlfußkreuzes stood out.)
All parts are packaged in cellophane; some padded with foam. The program is a 2-page instructions with understandable drawing. Screws, Allen key, washers, covers and more.

[___ Haptics + optics + processing ___]
The microfibre fabric feels very good to (brighter than the picture!); the processing of the seams / recesses / edge is very good. (In the early days of the material gives off the typical furniture store smell; a little uncomfortable, the plastic parts hardly smell musty.) (5 *)
The steel base is welded. At the top I could see a few small dents and bumps. (4 *)
The cap, which is inserted in the center so that the welds are not visible, is made of plastic and is not really smooth. Given below and barely visible, the fall is not significant.

[___ ___ Assembly]
Couple probably better because of the large backrest. Only it takes approximately 30-45 minutes. Since all the holes are precisely, the thread milled clean and supplied with everything they need done relatively quickly. For use of roles Excessive force is necessary! The fabric of the seat is stapled down; the distances between the brackets could be quite a bit smaller.

[___ Seat feeling + functions ___]
After 3 weeks of use, the chair is quite comfortable and well suited for working. To stretch out and relax I think the chair is not optimal (b ei me study, PC-table). Especially me the option to tilt the chair without strain to the back and to lock any missing (ie in this position stay) to etc. truly relax while looking example of a video / film. For this purpose, the (non-adjustable) is then too convex headrest. My old chair had a straight back, which I thought was much more relaxed.

Higher and provide deeper goes without problems and also in very fine intervals! (5 *)
The other lever is in the extended position (26 cm) pretty shaky, but works fine
Tilt function: fairly stiff hold, in a tilted attitude / stay is only possible if one exerts counterpressure or feet braced somewhere. Simply tilt times back and stay in this position, so is not easily possible.
No creaking noise when the wheels (on carpet), good rolling capacity; Screws should be tightened after some time!
Fabric wertig, robust: small lint, hair and other debris can be personalized with your fingers not aufklauben right away or wipe off or remove.
The seat is not straight, it has in the middle a trough, where the material remains fairly firmly behind and on the sides. (Feel-good factor: 70%)

[___ ___ CONCLUSION]
I find that in this chair I (nothing wrong with its processing) can not relax fully. I found my old chair (over 15 years of service (!) And much cheaper) already enjoyable. Since I also liked the straight (padded) armrests. Also I feel that I am with my 1.72 m almost too small for the chair (when you lean back, I can support fairly with the toes, really like ego wants it does not work to the suspension is too hard); So one should not be less, otherwise the headrest is too high, among others, which would also be uncomfortable.

Sitting / total feel-good factor: 74%
