Nice work on what is a very solid work-horse chair.
I used an IKEA Markus as my main office / computing room chair for many years.
The Markus has a lot going for it. It is affordable, and beats (in my opinion) many of the very low quality chairs on Amazon.
When the time comes, it is a good juncture to a higher price point chair (with Herman Miller, Steelcase or Hayworth being the leading brands), should someone be interested in one of those.
My chair journey has went like this:
(1) No-name generic Amazon chair; then
(2) IKEA Markus chair (several versions over the years); then
(3) Refurbished Steelcase Amia chair (whereby I received an imperfect chair from the UK vendor, which I will need to do some work on, hopefully with a worthwhile outcome).
