Office Chair - No Installation

The term 'office chair - no installation' generally means that the manufacturer only provides loose parts, hardware, and accessories, without offering on-site assembly services. Self-installation requires bearing operational risks, and after-sales service does not cover damages caused by installation issues.

I. Quotation Scope and Additional Fees

When the quotation for office furniture does not include installation, it typically only covers the factory price of the product, which includes the loose parts of the office chair, matching hardware (such as screws, casters, gas cylinders, etc.), and installation instructions. Fees not included are as follows:

1. On-site handling, stair climbing, and unloading fees: If the loose parts need to be transported from the logistics point to the installation site, the user must bear the labor or transportation costs.
2. Local short-distance delivery fees: The transportation cost from the manufacturer's warehouse to the user's designated address usually requires an additional payment.
3. Installation service fees: If the user requests the manufacturer or a third party to provide on-site assembly services, fees must be negotiated separately, and prices vary by region and the complexity of the chair.

II. Risks and Responsibilities of Self-Installation

1. Quality assurance scope: The manufacturer is only responsible for quality issues with the product itself (such as material defects or workmanship flaws). Problems caused by self-installation (such as loose structure due to untightened screws, lifting malfunctions due to misaligned gas cylinders, or deformed hardware) are not covered by after-sales service.
2. Repair costs: If damage occurs due to improper installation, the user must bear the repair costs, including replacement parts and rework labor. For example, incorrect installation of the gas cylinder may cause pressure failure, requiring self-funded replacement; reversed caster direction may scratch the floor, requiring readjustment.

III. Installation Difficulty of Different Types of Office Chairs

1. Simple and small office chairs: Chairs without armrests and with a simple structure usually only require tightening a few screws for assembly, making them relatively easy to install and suitable for self-assembly. The market price ranges from 40.95 yuan to 235.6 yuan, and users can follow the instructions step by step.
2. Complex office chairs: Chairs with armrests, adjustable lumbar supports, and multi-angle tilt functions involve steps such as gas cylinder installation, chassis fixation, and armrest alignment during assembly, requiring higher tool usage (such as electric screwdrivers) and spatial layout skills. Non-professionals are prone to installation misalignment and loose hardware issues, so it is recommended to contact the manufacturer or a professional for installation.
