What We Like
- The manufacturer's spec sheet gives a Steelcase Global Limited Lifetime warranty.
- The tilt is weight-activated, and the seat edge is a flexing edge.
Watch Out For
- It is one of the pricier chairs on the site, and its 5 rating rests on a single review.
- It weighs 41 lb, worth knowing if it will move between rooms.
- The listing does not state a lumbar type, a cushion type or a seat height range.
At a Glance
A Steelcase stool with a fabric seat, fixed arms, a weight-activated tilt and a flexing seat edge, with a Steelcase Global Limited Lifetime warranty on the manufacturer's spec sheet. The listing states a 300 lb capacity and few other specs.
Who This Chair Is For
- Buyers who want a Steelcase Global Limited Lifetime warranty named on a stool-height seat.
- Sitters who want a weight-activated tilt on a stool.
Who Should Look Elsewhere
- Anyone who wants to set arm height, since the listing gives the arms as fixed.
- Shoppers who want many owners behind a score: a single review supports the 5 rating.
How the Cobi stool moves: weight-activated tilt and a flexing edge
The tilt is weight-activated, and the listing does not state a tension control or a recline angle. The seat edge is a flexing edge, the seat is fabric and the arms are fixed. The manufacturer's spec sheet gives the back as glass-filled nylon, and the listing gives the base as plastic. The listing does not state a seat depth adjustment.
Alternatives to Consider
Why consider: Itemizes tilt tension and seat depth adjustment alongside an adjustable lumbar, none of which the Cobi listing states; its warranty is 12 years where the Cobi gives a Steelcase Global Limited Lifetime warranty on the spec sheet.
Steelcase
Steelcase Amia Fabric Stool with Fully Adjustable Arms, Black
Fair
In stock on Amazon.com
Why consider: Lists adjustable seat depth, LiveLumbar technology and adjustable arm height, where the Cobi listing does not state seat depth adjustment and gives fixed arms.
