Fixed arms stop you at the desk edge. These swing up so the seat rolls in close

At a Glance

  • Flip-up padded arms: raise them to pull in close to the desk or sit cross-legged
  • High, cushioned back: sponge padding under PU faux leather from seat to shoulders
  • Upper-back vent: an opening near the top lets warm air escape
  • Holds 250 lb: a standard-size chair for daily desk work
  • Two two-tone finishes: pick the trim color that suits your room

Fixed arms are the reason most desk chairs never tuck in all the way. This Elama high back office chair has padded nylon armrests that flip up, so you can roll the seat close to the desk, sit cross-legged, or slide it neatly under the edge when you are done. Sponge padding under PU faux leather cushions the seat and the tall back, an opening near the top of the backrest lets heat escape, and a butterfly tilt mechanism lets you rock back between tasks. It swivels a full 360 degrees and holds up to 250 pounds.

Key Features

  • Flip-up armrests: the padded nylon arms swing up out of the way whenever you want more room.
  • Tall, padded backrest: sponge cushioning runs from the seat up to the shoulders for long sittings.
  • Ventilation opening: a cutout at the upper back keeps air moving where faux leather runs warm.
  • Butterfly tilt: lean back and the backrest rocks with you, then sit up for focused work.
  • Gas lift height adjustment: a lever under the seat raises or lowers it to line up with your desk.
  • 360-degree swivel: a 320 mm nylon base on five casters turns and rolls across the room.

What's Included

In the box: one high back faux leather office chair, shipped unassembled, with its seat, backrest, flip-up armrests, gas lift cylinder, 320 mm five-star nylon base, five casters, and the tools needed for assembly.

Before You Buy

  • Assembly is required. The seat, back, arms, base, casters, and gas lift go together with the included tools, so set aside some time on delivery day.
  • The weight limit is 250 pounds. It is a standard-size executive chair, not a big-and-tall model.
  • The seat tops out just over 21 inches. That suits a standard 28 to 30 inch desk. If you sit at a tall desk or counter, look for a higher seat.

Perfect For

  • A home office where the chair needs to tuck under the desk
  • Remote workers who like to shift positions through the day
  • Study desks in a bedroom or dorm
  • Small offices that want a polished two-tone look
  • Anyone trading a stool or dining chair for real back support

Care & Use

  • Wipe the faux leather with a soft, damp cloth and dry it right away; skip harsh solvents.
  • Retighten the base and armrest bolts a week after assembly, then every few months.
  • Keep the chair out of strong direct sun and away from heaters to protect the faux leather.
  • Roll on hard floors, low-pile carpet, or a chair mat for the smoothest glide.

Arms that clear the desk edge

Closer to the keyboard

Fixed arms hit the desk edge and hold you back from the keyboard. Swing these padded arms up and the seat rolls in close, so your elbows rest naturally and your shoulders stay relaxed while you type.

Vent at the upper back

Upholstered backs trap heat during long afternoons. An opening cut into the upper backrest lets warm air escape behind your shoulders, keeping the faux leather more comfortable when the room warms up.

Tilt, lift, swivel

A butterfly tilt lets the backrest rock with you when you lean back to think or take a call. The gas lift and 360-degree swivel handle the rest of your daily adjustments.

Rated and sized for the home office

Rated to 250 lb and sized for a standard desk.

Flip-up arms versus fixed arms: the desk edge decides

vs. a fixed-arm desk chair

Fixed arms bump the desk and leave the chair parked in the walkway. Flip-up arms clear the edge so the seat slides in.

vs. an armless task chair

Armless chairs tuck away but leave your elbows hanging. Here you keep padded arms for typing and lift them only when needed.

vs. a mid-back chair

A shorter back stops below the shoulder blades. This taller backrest supports more of your upper back through the day.

FAQs

Common questions that customers ask

Do the armrests flip up?

Yes. Both padded nylon armrests swing up, so the chair can pull in close to the desk or tuck under it.

What is the weight limit?

The chair is rated for up to 250 pounds.

Does it recline?

It has a butterfly tilt mechanism, so the backrest rocks back as you lean. It is a tilting desk chair, not a full recliner.

Is assembly required?

Yes. It ships unassembled with the tools needed, and the seat, back, arms, base, casters, and gas lift fit together on delivery day.

How fast will it ship and can I return it?

Orders ship to the 48 contiguous states and process within 2 business days. If it is not right, you have 30 days from delivery to return unused items in the original packaging.

Elama designs home and office furniture with practical comfort in mind. The detail most chairs get wrong is the armrest that stops you at the desk edge. This one flips its padded arms up, then adds a vented upper back, butterfly tilt, a gas lift and a 250 lb rating in two-tone faux leather.

Roll in close and work

Fast shipping. 30-day returns. A high back chair with arms that flip up when you need room.
