I have a decent-but-cheap office chair and I'm not sitting in it much these days in part (LARGE part) because it presses on the back of my legs enough to cause my lower leg to swell. I mean SWELL. If I don't sit in that chair, no swelling.
That says something, doesn't it? Elevating my leg, walking around every hour, stretching and bending -- nothing seems to help. It's just a poor fit. Thing is, I LIKE the chair otherwise. It's great for my back.
Just rotten for my legs.
Still, that thing you have should come with space shuttle controls and a cabana boy with a fruity drink for THAT price.
