Looks comfy, might have to ditch this leather chair from OM, cause it's not cushioning as much.

NEVER buy a chair made by Global.
I have had two (a cheap task chair and a more expensive managers chair) both have a major problem with the screws on the seat. The slowly loosen over about 4 months, becoming VERY squeaky. Once they are loose, they can't be tightened without stripping the dense particle cardboard seat bottom.

Damn, I just ordered. Can more ppl comment on this chair's quality?

But still it seems like a good deal with the $10 off $50.
I added Post-it® 4"x4" Ruled Pad, Yellow, 300 Sheets/Pad for $3.99
bringing me just over $50.

I know what you mean about the problem w/global task chairs. One of my screws doesn't go in right anymore, so I have three which I must tighten every few months to keep it from squeeking. Check the bottom of any chairs to check if there's quality constuction there. The chair does look comfy though!

Next time you tighten them, try adding some Loctite or similar product to the hole. That may keep them from coming loose again.

Look for this link on portlybillet and add in the $10 off $50 coupon. Worked for me yesterday with an extra pen or two... YMMV ;)

My $70 leather office chair I picked up from OM 2 years ago has done alright but I've always preferred fabric.

I'm not too crazy about the color scheme but as long as the build quality is decent and it's comfy then I could care less.

Since this is on clearance online, I wonder if it's available for the "tushie test" at Staples B&M?
