Easy and quick upgrade to most office/gamer chairs. Super smooth, bearing wheels, inline skate style. Adds about an inch to the height, but most chairs are adjustable. This is so nice and much quieter. Ordered some for my office chair and liked them so much I got some for my wife’s chair, she loves them.

BIGGER, LONGER, AND PARTIALLY CUT:I bought these for a gaming chair that cost me nearly $400 but had garbage wheels and the base of which was too low, causing the gas cylinder to scrape my hardwood. Seeing as these are 3" tall, they are perfect to both lift the base higher off the ground and keep my hardwood in great shape. The only gripe I have is that the pegs that connect to the chair base are longer than other replacement wheels and so I had to drill the hole deeper to make these things fit. My chair base is plastic to that was easy enough, but if you have a metal chair base, I would HIGHLY suggest triple checking the length measurements to make sure they aren't too short or too long.THE SQUEAKY WHEEL GETS THE GREASE (OR IN THIS CASE LEAVES NEGATIVE FEEDBACK):The biggest complaints I see for these types of wheels in general, but pointedly at this specific listing, are that they still leave marks on floors, are hard to move/cannot pivot, and/or the ball bearings are crap and come apart easily.MOURNING WOOD:I can say without a doubt these things don't leave marks on hardwood. I don't use a chair mat and have no need for one, especially with these wheels. These are basically scooter wheels made of a soft polyurethane composite and they glide across hardwood surfaces with no problem. If your desk area is carpeted you will probably have a rough time without the use of a chair mat because these wheels have more traction than an orthopedic surgery wing at general hospital.WHEEL AND DEAL:As for the movement and pivoting, it hasn't been a problem for me, unless you are trying to power slide like a brain dead marmot. By that I mean, if you swivel the chair slightly so that all the wheels face the same direction BEFORE you move, it will work fine. If instead you just try to move in that direction and all the wheels are facing different directions then of course you are going to meet with resistance (which is why there are so many people with bent frames and locked wheels). Have you ever tried to move a shopping cart sideways without pivoting the wheels first? No? Of course not, because you aren't a moron. Apply the same logic to these wheels and you will be able to maneuver like you are competing in a roller derby from the comfort of your office area.BEARINGS, BASIC MATH, BATTLING OBESITY:Lastly people complain about the bearings going to pots very quickly and greasing up their floors. The MAX weight capacity is 500lbs. Now I am not a genius, but I know enough to see a max rating on anything and know that its not a good idea to push items to their limits. That being said, the max capacity includes the weight of your chair. Most gaming chairs are ~60 lbs and most office chairs, at least wide-assed or high-backed ones weigh even more than that. So however much you weigh, you want to add the weight of your chair to that and determine how close to max you are. For example I weigh 225 lbs, so with the combined weight of my chair, I am putting 285 lbs of weight on these wheels. That is nearly 60% of the max these things can handle. But if you are say, 350 lbs and your chair is 60lbs, that means you are putting 410 lbs (82%+) on the wheels and then jackknifing them around your office hoping to not capsize. Yeah, good luck with that. I have had no issues with the bearings or weight capacity.FINAL RESULTPROS+ Doesn't leave marks on hardwood or other flat finished surfaces+ Slide great+ Fits most chairs (may require some extra work)+ Great for the priceCONS- Fatties will shred these puppies and get mad at the manufacturer (overtaxing the weight will cause problems)- Fatties Part 2: Pivot Boogaloo (learn to use wheels before posting a bad review)

You will wonder why you didn’t change those miserable old casters years ago. Easy to install (though removing the old casters on an old chair proved rather difficult.) That chair is humming around the kitchen linoleum now! No marking on floor, just smooth cruising. On my carpeted floor the wheels roll just fine when I’m not sitting in the chair. It’s a semi-shag rug so I’m not surprised. I imagine a flat office carpet would be much better for joy riding. So I stand and move the chair, good exercise! Eventually I’ll try a floor mat which will be much better. Very pleased with my choice. I watched a YouTube video for advice, found it very helpful. A dab of WD40 on the stems and the leg attachment holes made everything easier. I sprayed a little on the old casters too since it was very difficult to pull them free. Finally removed old casters with a long flat blade screwdriver and gripping pliers, installed new with a one inch diameter dowel a few inches long and a hammer. The dowel protects the roller base and gives just the right spot to strike your blow and seat the stem. Then off to the races! I do have experience with tools but I think other 70 yr old DIYers should be able to do this too. Actually hardest part was flipping the chair over to get to the legs!

Every time i get a new chair i get these wheels, they are super super smooth, easy to install, and quiet

The wheels are great for starters, the roll great, they fit my Noblechair Icon series. They seem high quality and sturdy. the only Con I've found with these wheels is that the initial direction change while on your typical plastic chair mat my be a bit stiff, it could be my carpet being a little higher than should be creating a very small divot under each wheel, perhaps that could be the reason for the initial direction change, but I have tried 3 different chair mats all the same effect. This con doesn't change my thoughts on purchasing this item and would do so again.

I recently purchased a new office chair. I have hardwood floors throughout my rooms, and I wanted some casters that were silent on the floor, wouldn't scratch it, and easy to move the chair around (I am constantly going back and forth on my desk.)I read the reviews, and the negative ones were mostly about the wheels making the chair taller and difficulty moving around. I will say yes, these casters do add a LITTLE height to your chair, but for a normal-sized desk, this is not an issue. Be prepared though to have a little less leg room if you have a lower sitting desk. The other issue was movement. These wheels are not the same as normal casters on a chair; the first initial movement may be a little more difficult to get started, but once you figure it out, it's actually quite natural and easy.Give these wheels a try! I've had them for a little while now, and they make ZERO noise when rolling around, and I've grown accustomed to the movement issue and prefer this way now. The biggest bonus is that my floors are protected without needing to buy a floor mat!!

I have not necessarily been mechanically inclined. But I did not realize I didn’t need to be a genius or mechanical. I didn’t need any tools either! Old wheels are pulled off- new wheels are pushed in til an audible click and walla-walla!! It’s done! Wheels glide smoothly and are silent. Great purchase.

Great product

ME DESPLAZO CON GRAN COMODIDAD Y SEGURIDAD,MAGNIFICAS.

My downstairs neighbours complain about my computer chair noises and you know I'm on a linoleum floor with these the wheels are very smooth and I can feel it and barely hear it when I'm sitting on top of it my neighbour does not even hear my chair move anymore. These wheels are very smooth and very quiet

Not happyThey are a cheap wheel, and not all wheels go in same direction and cause you to damage the floor and most snap out of the chair?The rubber nice but let down by faulty metal directional part. Shame

I wanted these for hardwood because my old wheels were marking the wood. The new ones work great and had the benefit of adding a bit of height to the chair. They are quiet and smooth.

This are like high quality roller blade wheels and can be used on high end hardwood floors without issue. I have purchased 3 over a period of years.
