Just went to B&M. It was still $59.99 . I explained my story to the manager and he entered in a manual discount for me. So I got it for $48.39.

Ugh....i opened mine up (and it had clearly been repackaged by i didn't really care) and guess what??? It had two right arms :| ... I called back to my OD and they didn't have any in stock...and neither did any of the two other ones surrounding my area. I had to call the corporate office and the driver's bringing me a left arm on Monday :|

Here is a trick for those who want to buy fabric chair and use a coupon. You can just choose "pick up in store" instead of "delivery" in shipping method. Since the chair is still priced as $59.99 in the store, you will get $59.99 if you pick it up in store. However if you choose "delivery", it will show up as $99.99. Same thing is for leather chair but in the reverse way for price: you have to choose "delivery" instead of "pick up in store", otherwise, the final price will be $59.99 instead of $49.99. Good luck!

Just picked up my chair today. Got the blue/gray fabric. The chair's big, I guess it was made for them big fat executive types. Padding is sufficient, I would say it's standard. Putting it together wasn't too bad, but one of the screws won't go in all the way. Not a big deal since it feels okay with the loose screw. Tilt is hard to use on this chair. Overall, can't beat $45. I wouldn't buy it for $99 though.

Thanks EngineNr9 for the post.:)

Tilt is hard to use? Huh? Maybe if you are a bird. You pull the height adjustment lever out to use tilt, push it in to lock the chair in place. -_And if the tension on the tilt is too hard, you loosen it with the tension adjustment knob underneath the chair. Is there something I'm missing?

For those of your who have the fabric chair, is the lever a little loose? When I lock it (to keep from tilting) it still rocks a little. Isnt it supposed to be completely locked? Just asking because I dont recall the floor model to have this problem. I think the lever was pretty tight and had no room to move.

I have had this chair for 4 months, It could use a little more padding in the seat, otherwise a good chair for the money

What is the name of the fabric one you are referring to? Is it this chair?

Is there any way to get the fabric chair for the $60 price anymore? Did the B&M price go up to $100 too? Hope we can still get the fabric chair for $60 somehow.

EngineNr9: Go to the website and print it out. Or Pm me if you want a screenshot of my online invoice if you think that'll work

Has anyone bought or seen the fabric one for the $59 price recently? The B&M stores seem to be at $99.99 now too. Really wish I had arrived here sooner. Maybe next time.

I just went to OD to try out their chairs and told the OD guy there that the website said the cloth chairs were $50. Then he said "well, lemme check the computers, maybe they changed the price" and he came back and told me that it was indeed $50. They are having a 10 day sale on a bunch of furniture in the store (There are flyers in the store) Then again, maybe he didn't go back to the computers though because he was trying to haggle with me with the other chairs, knocking off $20 left and right for the other ones. If any of you live in NYC and want a chair from OD, I suggest going down to the one in Times Square and haggling with them. I didn't even have to put up a fight.

BTW- I'm not familiar with OD, but the one in NYC gives free shipping on all orders over $50. If this is a normal procedure for OD, just ignore this. Just thought I'd share.

Ok...driver didn't deliver the left arm of the chair yesterday so I had to drive to another OD store cuz the one I bought my cloth chair at was outta the chair so they can't do the exchange on my defective chair (mine had two right arms instead of a right and a left).

Summary: The thing sure is comfortable :) has a little chemical smell to it...but i'm sure that'll go away.
