The chair is easy to assemble when it arrives in a large box. You need to put the casters on the base, slide the pneumatic tube into the base, put the chair on top, and then add the armrests if you want. It took me less than ten minutes to put it together (including adding the arms).
Virtually all of the chair is either metal or the vinyl used in the seat. The only plastic components (that I can see) are the caster wheels, a piston in the pneumatic tube, and some spacers in the arm assembly. As a result, the chair feels very solid and stable, and it neither looks nor feels cheap.
The vinyl is thick and feels solidly attached to the aluminum frame. It also comes already attached so you don't have to do that yourself. The vinyl seat and back are firm with very slight give to them. They're not soft, but they're not uncomfortable like a hard plastic chair might be. The lower back is shaped to make it ergonomic if you're sitting up straight, so it's actually pretty comfortable. I've been working from home due to COVID so I've been using the chair a lot every day, but I haven't had any issues with discomfort. I haven't had any issues with heat, even when it has been hot in my apartment, but since it's vinyl it's not very breathable. If you live in a hot, humid environment, you might have trouble with that.
I'm 6'3" (or 190.5 cm), and the back of the chair comes up to the bottom of my shoulder blades. I haven't felt like that has caused any issues and my back still feels supported by the seat. I weigh about 230 lbs. (~104 kg.) and the chair feels completely sturdy when I sit in it.
Overall, I'm very satisfied with the purchase. The seat on the cheap office chair that I had before was losing its padding and the lower back support was a piece of floppy plastic, so it didn't do much. Since I'm in the chair all day, I wanted to spend a little extra money on a replacement that would hopefully last longer than those cheap mesh-backed, all-plastic chairs normally do. I've had the chair for about a month so far and I think it still feels the same as when I first started using it.

Comfortable Padded SeatInferior chairs use thin upholstery and minimal padding which can become uncomfortable rather quickly. The SOHO Ribbed Chair makes for a much more comfortable experience using a contoured foam seat and curved knee rest. |
Thin, Durable Aluminum BaseThe aluminum base not only looks great, but it’s also the strongest base on the market — supporting over 400 lbs. |
Super Fast AssemblyWheels → gas lift → seat → arms. All in just a few minutes! Less time assembling, more time accomplishing important things. |

A Well Built High Quality Chair
It's well built, with the main frame being made of metal. The chair is reasonably comfortable and feels secure and strong, but just be sure to tighten the knob good and snug that's underneath the chair to keep from rocking. I like theses chairs so much that I bought 4 of them to replace my dining room table chairs. It makes it so much easier to just simply roll away from and to the table whenever I get ready to stand up or sit down. Not only that, but rolling a chair on my floor is a lot better than sliding a traditional table chair on the floor. I don't have to worry about scratching my floor. These roller chairs actually look pretty good at my dining table.
