What We Like

  • A 12-year manufacturer warranty is stated.
  • The weight rating is 400 lb.
  • The seat depth is adjustable and the arms pivot.

Watch Out For

  • The listing carries one review in total, so the 5 rating has almost nothing behind it.
  • Its Ergo Score of 29 sits well down the category, held back by how little the listing states.
  • Arm adjustment stops at pivot in the listing (1D).

At a Glance

The Nugget Medium Seat version of the Gesture is a limited-detail listing: pivoting arms, adjustable seat depth, a locking tilt, a 400 lb rating and a 12-year warranty are all it states.

Who This Chair Is For

  • Buyers who already know the Gesture and want this colour with a 12-year warranty and a 400 lb rating.
  • People who need an adjustable seat depth and a tilt that locks.

Who Should Look Elsewhere

  • Anyone who needs seat height, lumbar or backrest details before buying, since the listing does not state them.
  • Shoppers who rely on reviews, because there is only 1 review to read.

What the Nugget Medium Seat Gesture says about its controls

Tilt tension can be set and the tilt locks at four positions. The upholstery is listed as polyester on both seat and back, and the casters are hard-floor casters. The listing does not state a gas lift type, a tilt mechanism type, a recline angle or whether the arms adjust in height.
