Office Chair - Overall the chair is excellent but…
Overall the chair is excellent but there are a couple of issues:-
1. One of the screws to hold the seat to the plate is bent
2. The arms are difficult to line up and could do with longer screws. (I have decided not to use the arms so that the chair fits under my desk).

Excellent product. Excellent service.
The adjustable chair I purchased is well-designed and well-constructed. Excellent value for money. Dealing with Office Boffins was totally straightforward. I was kept informed of every stage of the online buying process. Office Boffins will be my first choice for future similar purchases.

Not fit for purpose
Do not buy from this company!! Bought a chair 6 months ago and it has broken already. The bolts that hold the seat have come loose numerous times as there are no nuts to secure them in place. Was told to use Loctite to glue them in place after asking for a refund!! Very cheaply made chairs.

Hi Trudy,
We really appreciate your comments about our customer service. We try hard to get it right so is really lovely to hear that. We hope your are sitting comfortably in the Alpha XL office chair. It's a firm favourite with our customer community!
Wishing you happy sitting in it.

Good but with issues
Delivery was prompt and the products was a reasonable price. The chair did have a severe scuff mark on the bottom of the seat metal housing which must have happened during production because there was no corresponding damage to the packaging, and the right arm rest loose because it was not tightened fully during manufacture. The former is on the bottom of the chair and not visible and the latter I fixed by tightening the screw. Both issues suggest quality control is lacking by the manufacturer. The headrest is also quite useless but I probably would not use it anyway. Otherwise a nice, comfortable chair that suits my purposes as a desk and gaming chair.

Yes, it is best office chair I have ever bought - and the most expensive at £221 - but these you have to pay for quality - and the Apollo chair is quality.

Great customer service
The customer service I received from Harri at Office Boffins in everything you could hope for. I had a complicated return situation and he made me feel reassured that he’d help rather than hold it against me. So many companies don’t see that customer issues are an opportunity to build rapport and loyalty to their brand. Thanks Harri for being a good person and thanks Office Boffins- I’m sure I’ll be back
