Description:
Uplift's Clarksville is a basic chair with a great price and comfort for
those who need solid chairs for offices, conference rooms, coworking hubs and more.

FULL STORY ======================================================================Sometime s you don't need a fancy chair. Sometimes you just need a quality chair that fits a good budget. The Uplift Clarksville is a simple chair with breathable mesh, a comfortable enough cushion, and enough lumbar support to feel like it's there and worth the cost, without making you want to reach for another chair immediately, as a lot of cheap chairs do.

Assembly is easy. The price is right. Ok, it's unlikely to make it on to our guide to the best office chairs we've tested, but the design is simple enough to replicate across an entire conference room or co-working space without creating a break in the uniformity. That's not to say that this is a boring chair at all. It still is a good-looking chair. Plus, it matches perfectly with Uplift's range of walking pads or standing mats if you want to create a more health-conscious office or workspace. Uplift Clarksville: Price & availability The Clarksville by Uplift is priced at $359 direct from the Uplift website .

To me, that's a fair cost for a no-nonsense office chair that puts support
and comfort ahead of stylish designs that, while pretty, don't offer much practicality in the workplace.

A variant in fog grey is also available for an additional $29, and you can upgrade the casters for a smoother roll for an extra $39. Uplift Clarksville: Unboxing and First Impressions (Image credit: Collin Probst // Future) The unboxing experience for the Clarksville is unassuming and simple at best. It arrives in a very compact box with everything well packaged in its new packaging. This is clearly designed for efficiency and simplicity, not for mind-blowing marketing on the box itself.

The hover is easy to assemble, and with my hotel electric screwdriver, I was able to assemble everything pretty quickly. You could just use the included tools as well, if you like. Once I got everything put together, which was a very simple task, I was able to get the seat itself dialed in within only a matter of minutes due to the simplicity.

That's not a bad thing at all. This chair is designed to be simple and functional, so having that mirrored in the assembly process is actually a massive pro for it. Uplift Clarksville: Design & Build Quality My team has used this chair in our rotation of chairs for the last 120 days, and in that time it has functioned excellently. There's no squeaking, no loose parts, nothing that feels like it's degrading at all.

It's simple, and it's easy. It works great in our conference room or in an office or in a waiting room or anywhere you need a decent office chair but don't want to spend exorbitant amounts of money, like some of these chairs
are costing these days.

The chair is durable and reliable enough for a primary office chair, but it's also sleek enough to place on the guest side of your desk if you're that kind of office. Uplift Clarksville: In use (Image credit: Collin Probst // Future) As I said, this chair has been in our rotation for over 100 days now, and during that time we've all appreciated its soft cushion and how it has remained comfortable despite its lower price.

Don't get me wrong, I love where Uplift is going with this chair. Not everybody needs that absurdly expensive chair they put in the executive
office or feel bad about grabbing. Usually, your chair is only going to sit
in for a little bit, maybe because you prefer to stand or walk on walking pads, such as Uplift's walking pad, which we have tried with this chair.
Maybe you just want to spend your money somewhere else.

Regardless, there aren't many great companies that offer a good-quality chair at a good price. Most of the chairs that are at this cost are absolute trash and are Amazon cheap ones that are made from poor quality materials.

Having a reputable company like Uplift create a budget-friendly chair is massive, and our last 100+ days of experience have proven that the armrest adjustability is great, the recline is solid, and the comfort works for even
a long day at work. Granted, it is not as comfortable as some of the higher-end chairs that we have, but for the price this is pretty good. Uplift Clarksville: Final verdict (Image credit: Collin Probst // Future) All in
all, with this chair you get more than you pay for. You get a chair that will actually last for several years in the conference room with daily abuse from people who don't care about chairs that aren't in their own office.

Or, if you want this in your own office, you'll get many years of use unless you absolutely obliterate your chairs or decide to tumble me down on them to burn off some steam after your last frustrating meeting. Regardless of your reason for buying a chair like this, Uplift is a company you can rely on and trust to put out quality gear.
