★ The Horn Book, starred review Roberto Clemente always loved baseball. Growing up in Carolina, Puerto Rico, he swung tree branches (since he didn't have a bat) and hit tin cans. He was always batting, pitching, running, sliding. His dedication paid off when, at the age of 19, he was tapped for a major league team. First stop: chilly Montreal . . . where he warmed the bench and himself, longing to play baseball. Months later, he finally got his chance with the Pittsburgh Pirates. Clemente had an instant impact on the field--hitting the ball and making it to first base and finally home. Many Pittsburgh fans loved his bold style on the field, but not everyone was quick to embrace a Black man from Puerto Rico who spoke español. This nonfiction picture book by MLB.com journalist Nathalie Alonso and award-winning illustrator Rudy Gutierrez shows the emotional highs and lows of Roberto Clemente's career as he fought racism--from fans, reporters, and other figures in the sport--to become one of the greatest baseball players of all time. With English and Spanish words intermingled in the text, this book will inspire young readers as they learn about Clemente's contributions to Black, Latino, and American history.

Great price and Quality
Color: Khaki, Number of Items: 1
Best money ever spent on an office chair. At the time of purchase, it was less than half the price of local retail stores. Once we received it and put it together, it was top notch. Better than expected. Now time will tell how long it stays that way. Very comfortable, strong material, and easy to adjust.

Comfortable Even After Long Hours
Color: Black, Number of Items: 1
I purchased this chair for my husband’s home office, and it has been a great choice.
The height and angle can be adjusted very easily, making it comfortable to customize. Assembly was also simple and straightforward.
The size is just right, and it remains comfortable even after sitting for long periods of time without causing fatigue.
Overall, the quality exceeded my expectations for the price. If it ever breaks, I would definitely purchase the same one again.

Not an average-to-large person's chair by any means.
Color: Brown, Number of Items: 1
PROS:
Comfortable seat cushion
Feels sturdy and manufactured well
Swivels and rolls effortlessly
Height adjustment
Not terribly heavy
Easy assembly
CONS:
Reclining feature is not great
Back cushion forces a very upright sitting posture
Pleather material will deteriorate within a couple years
It's overpriced for what it is, even at $100.
SUMMARY:
I'm a little guy. 5'7 and 145 lbs. This chair feels like it was scaled for me and my little frame. Now, while that's perfect for me, nearly everyone else I know or have ever known, are at least twice my size. And I can't imagine them finding the overall size of this thing to be enough chair for them. Maybe I'm way off base here, but I've sat in regular sized office chairs and while they'd swallow me, they're essentially perfect sized for most other people.
Feels good to sit in, nothing amazing but it's comfortable enough. Remember, it's made with pleather. Every day use for long periods of time will wear the material out within two or three years. Won't effect it's performance but it will be ugly with cracks and wear/tear far quicker than real leather, of course. It looks very nice right out the box though. Not too heavy either.
The reclining feature is a bummer, it's like you really have to force it to lean back, like it's fighting against your doing so. Which if your trying to lean back, you know putting a bunch of effort into your legs is the opposite of what you're trying to achieve - which is relax without tension in any part of your body. It's basically useless for my needs, anyway.
The price, even at a measly $100 for an "executive office chair" does not reflect the hiccups with this thing because it's not a one size fits all kind of chair. Anyone over 180 lbs and 5'10 will surely find it to be a bit snug and the back cushion to sit a bit short. The back forces you to sit very upright. Something that will take getting used to, especially since I can't recline. This chair is kinda "meh" to be completely honest. I'll spend at least twice as much next time and get five times the quality.
Look, it'll do the job for a while but there really isn't anything very impressive about it besides what it visually looks like.
I've no idea how so many people rated this thing with so many glowing reviews. There's not a lot to boast about with a cheap $100 pleather chair that's undersized for most people. I really don't get it.
I'd only recommend this at $65-$70. No way this is worth the $100 Amazon is currently pricing it at. Spend just a little a bit more, you'll notice a huge jump in quality over this.

Just Great!
Color: Beige, Number of Items: 1
Comfortable. Wheels roll very well. Great padding. Seems durable. Assembly is the standard with such chairs, takes about 15 minuttes. Do not know how long the PL? leather fabric will last? Probably wear in a couple of years. But for the price, this is perfect.
UPDATE: After 2 1/2 months, seat feels flat and very uncomfortable.

Modern and comfortable, easy to assemble
Color: White, Color: White
Reliable chair with solid quality. Assembly took about 35 mins following the clear instruction sheet. Chair can hold at least 220 lbs, stable and easy to move. Wheels can move in multiple directions. Seat heights and arm are both adjustable. No stain or scratches on the padding surface. White finish looks clean and modern.
