This office chair was made by combining a brand new donor office chair
with a seat removed from the passenger side of a Hyundai Genesis Coupe.
It has been thoroughly cleaned and is in very nice overall condition as
you can see in the pictures above. The seat is upholstered in its
original black leather. The front facing portion of all the leather is
in excellent condition, but there are two scrapes on the back of the
headrest as shown in the pictures. The hard plastic trim pieces have a
number of nick and scrapes and an example is shown in one of the
pictures as well.
This seat is from a late-model Genesis Coupe.
The new ones are being made with the exact same seats and all of the
non-Hyundai parts of the chair are new. It will be shipped partially
disassembled and will require about 10 minutes to put together. Only
simple hand tools are required.
This chair retains the Hyundai reclining mechanism, adjustable headrest
height and headrest fore/aft position. And, it has all the standard
features you would expect from an office chair, such as swivel, tilt,
tension adjust, height adjustment, adjustable arms etc. This is a very
unique item that is near impossible to find anywhere and would make a
great gift too. Please feel free to ask any questions. Thank you.
I put together the first of these chairs after having a couple of
store-bought office chairs with foam cushions that quickly became
flattened and useless and made it feel like I was sitting on a park
bench at work all day. Automobile seats are designed for long-distance
comfort and I thought they might make a great office chair. It turns out
they do. They provide all-day comfort in the office just like they do
in the cars. They typically use a combination of padding and steel
springs rather than a single piece of foam over plywood or plastic like
most office chairs and they simply don't degrade like regular office
chairs. I've been using a Mercedes chair in my office since August 2014
and couldn't be happier. One day a coworker saw my new chair, said it
was the coolest thing she's ever seen and thought I should try making
them for other people too, so here we are. I've learned a few things by
using one of these chairs daily and by having built many others. So,
I've upgraded the design of this chair as a result.
The weight capacity of this chair is 300 pounds and the top of the seat
cushion can be adjusted from 19" - 22." Need a chair that's a little
taller? Just send me a message with your requirements and I will
probably be able to accommodate you.
Please check my other items for sale if this isn't exactly what you're
looking for. I'm usually working on several chairs at a time, so there
should be others coming soon.
