Is the lumbar support adjustable?

No. The butterfly backrest has a contoured shape that supports the lower back, but there is no separate lumbar pad or depth adjustment.

Can the armrests be adjusted?

No. The armrests are fixed, with about 19 inches of space between them. Check that this fits your shoulders and desk height before buying.

How much weight does it hold?

Up to 330 lb, which is higher than most task chairs in this class.

Does the back recline?

Yes. The backrest rocks and adjusts from about 100 to 117 degrees, and the seat swivels 360 degrees.

What seat height does it fit?

The seat adjusts from about 17.5 to 20 inches, which suits most standard desks for users of average height. Very tall users may find it low.
