How long have you had yours? I have a chair from Ikea that was great for about 1.5 years then deteriorated rather quickly.

I have a love hate relationship with Ikea. The rule I've worked out is "buy nothing with moving parts" which would rule out office chairs.

I'm down to 4 out of 6 of these that haven't broken from regular use within the first year: http://www.ikea.com/us/en/catalog/products/70033870

Luckily, I live in the same town as Herman Miller and find good stuff at garage sales every now and then.

Purchased on the 1st of June last year - I'll keep an eye on it in the future, thanks for the warning!
