This office chair was made by combining a brand new donor office chair
with a seat removed from the passenger side of a Honda Prelude. 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
Ivory cloth. The chair has only two small imperfections: a depression on
the upper backrest (from something leaning on it?) and a dark spot on
the side of the backrest as shown in the pictures.
Honda called
this color Ivory and it's a bit rare since it was only available in cars
with Eucalyptus Green Pearl paint. All other cars had black interiors.
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 Honda reclining mechanism and adjustable headrest
height. 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 310 pounds and the top of the seat
cushion can be adjusted from 18.5" - 21.5." 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.
