It also has a wide backrest, and comes with controls that let you adjust the seat height, tilt tension as well as its rocking motion. Is it the best office chair for short people?

Support
There’s no form of advanced lumbar support on this chair, so you shouldn’t expect much from it especially if you happen to experience any sort of back problems. In fact, if you’ve been dealing with back problems for a long time now, what you need to consider getting is a chair that’s got adjustable lumbar support, and there’s no better pick other than the Herman Miller Aeron Chair Headrest. The OFM essential office chair only offers a good amount of padding for your back, and this is just OK if your back is perfectly fine.
Comfort
As you might assume, leather office chairs tend to be very comfortable to sit on, and most OFM office chairs fall under this category, including the one under review here. It’s smooth SoftThread Leather surface gives it a nice, luxurious feel at a price that is very much pocket friendly. We just wish it had padded armrests like the AmazonBasics Leather Mid-Back Office Chairs, but its integrated headrest and its thick seat cushion try a lot to make up for that small issue.
Adjustability
You’ll be able to raise the seat height of this OFM essentials chair from a low point of 17 inches from the floor up to a maximum height of 21 inches, and this should be good enough especially if you’re generally a short person. Unlike the Flash Furniture Mid-Back Black Mesh Swivel Ergonomic Task Office Chair, the OFM Essential chair’s armrests can’t be adjusted, but because they’re angled towards the floor, they shouldn’t really give you too many issues.
Breathability
The breathability on the OFM chair is not as good as a mesh chair would be, but it’s still not bad enough to the extent that it would have you get up from it every now and then because of the chair getting warm.
Value
Priced at less than $100, the OFM Essentials executive office chairs is one of the most affordable executive chairs that you can buy for your workplace or even your home office. The chair is able to accommodate a weight capacity of up to 250 pounds, and this is thanks to its strong metal frame.
OFM chairs Wrap Up
In case you were wondering, this OFM chair does come with a 3 year warranty, and it covers the parts of the chair, as well as free shipping of the parts from the manufacturer to your home. Damages resulting from wear and tear are however not covered.
