However, because the wheel-base of a Rollerblade was a little thinner when you pushed away from your office desk. When we first installed these new casters onto our chair less than a month ago they were perfectly fine. The problem with the Rollerblade office wheel. Let's hope they have addressed the quality concerns there. The Office Oasis - This is similar to SunnieDog They too have a website (Thanks to reader "Scott" for the comment on this.) Their wheels also look similar to the Chinese wheels that are out on the market.ATOMDOC - Was originally put into the fake category however similar to Uniq they had to be vetted properly and they have come up with designs that deviate from the classic thruster bearing caster system.However, it seems that they are re-packaging a Chinese product under their name. SunnieDog - According to some of the commenters, this is a legit American business out of Flordia. We feel that there were some companies that were slammed into a list of fake office chairs. That being said the ones that we reviewed below "Used" to have websites but are now gone. If you see only Amazon listings then that should serve as a warning that this company may not exist. The ultimate test really is to find out if this company has its own website. If you do not believe us on this list that's cool. If there was feel free to leave it in the comments below because we would give credit where it's due! We're not even sure if there was an original company that came up with the Rollerblade office chair caster. Only to turn around and sell it at a higher price-point in this bizarre state of a completely false competitive market. These are all fraudulent Chinese companies etching different names and different graphic boxes for the same product to give this grand illusion of competition. Because you see, a lifetime warranty can only be upheld if the company which made you the product was alive to even start with. Sadly, none of these companies are real despite the boxes and the claims of a lifetime warranty.

Which if you follow those you begin to realize that suddenly there's a bunch of other companies that appear to make the same identical office chair!Ĭompetition must be stiff out there. In fact, the first hits you'll find are yet-even more Amazon links. Go ahead and slam that name into your favorite search engine! Use quotes even! There is no such company by the name of "Texas Real Rollers". There is no such company as "Texas Real Rollers!" It all looks official except there is one problem that we found out after one of our wheels broke. The "Texas Real Rollers" with its lifetime warranty. The picture above is essentially the package that we got in the mail. On top of that since my review will have its own dedicated page it won't be buried underneath a tidal wave of fake reviews which is the great scam that amazon sellers tend to do even if a product is defective. We're going to perform the review right here because that's what a blog does. Online reviews.įor some reason, we can't post a review on any of the major online outlets unless we give them money to become a "special member" or spend a few hundred dollars. In less than a month of having these, we ran into some problems! But don't worry, this story does have a happy ending of sorts. Since Rollerblade wheels have a low Shore A rating of around 75A it meant that the polyurethane is soft and thus will not make any noise on hardwood floors. Rollerblade wheels were the next best thing. Initially, we wanted skateboard wheels for the bottom of our chairs to maintain the aesthetic however they do not exist unless we make them ourselves. We picked up a set of these office caster wheels that essentially have Rollerblade wheels on the bottom of them. We purchased a set of Rollerblade office caster wheels.
