I love this chair....got it from staples for $40 when it was suppose to be $60.
The thing is starting to sqeak though...i know you all know what i'm talking about.

Any ideas on what to do to rectify this problem? WD-40 maybe?:confused:

That should do the trick I have to give mine a shot every other month or so!

I can tell you this, it you choose to spray it with WD40 make sure you put something down so that when it drains it doesn't stain the carpet with black spots.

I didn't think and found out the hard way.

Sorry Sho... but I had to http://bestsmileys.com/lol/5.gif but it is good advice lucky me I have always put a rag under the chair.

I take my chair out to the garage, spray some WD40 on it, and put it back.

Total time involved is usually less than about 60 seconds for all steps.

Hope you were able to follow all that and that it helped!
