Repos

Chair was easy to put together and is decent quality. Very comfortable as well.

First, a disclaimer: I do not work for the chair company nor do I benefit in any way from this short-term review. Also, I am comfortable reading simple instructions and using tools to assemble things. Your mileage, as they say, may vary. To the review . . . The chair (two boxes, one very large and heavy) arrived on time* in early July 2020 with no damage. The single-page assembly instructions -- included in the smaller box -- were *very simple* to understand. They provided a line-drawing and letter for each part (with bolt lengths to differentiate) and a pictorial order of assembly of said parts. This *was not* difficult by any means: Find part. Check letter. Organize by that letter. Follow pictured steps. Third-grade stuff. Bolting the back to the bottom of the chair required three hands at one point, although this could have been managed without help. I had help around, so. . . Also, one armrest bolt took about 30 seconds to get threaded. It is mostly unclear where assembly trouble for some might have arisen**. Regarding build quality: the chair seems made of sturdy stuff. The base and legs look to be all plywood, and the stitching, bolt holes, and other basics seem good. It’s not made of highest-quality materials, but for 250 bucks . . . Regarding chair comfort: It has a “new chair” feel, which means it’s a bit stiff-ish at first. It has been otherwise unremarkable. This is a good thing. I sit down. I go about my laptop business, and I do not think about the chair. It is not plush by any means. I do not like plush, strato-lounger-type chairs, anyway. (If I want to be in bed, I go to bed.) That said, the padding does feel a bit cheap on this cheap chair. Two niggles: First, the chair swivels very easily. We own an actual Ekornes chair, and that one swivels only when asked to. This one’s more lively, and not in a good way. The second thing is the size. It’s pretty small. I saw the dimensions in the description, but hadn’t taken out a ruler on our Ekornes chair to compare. This small size means the advertised weight limit of “330 pounds” would have to be in a person with a 35-inch waist. Pretty unlikely. If you’re wide or pretty tall, this will feel not-big at all. (Third non-niggle: I attempted to try out my “loins” on this chair -- see “Key Features” in description. The neighbors may have called the police.) For a 250-dollar chair, this is a winner . . . so far. * UPS diddled with the larger box for about a week for no obvious reason, but that’s no fault of the shipper. ** I may have discovered why some reviewers had difficulty assembling the arms: the ‘right’ and ‘left’ stickers on them were reversed -- the “R” being on the left arm. The misalignment of the arm’s bolt holes told that story. Easy fix: “R” goes on the left, then. Update on 3 February 2021: So, six months in . . . still OK-ish. The chair is holding up pretty well, except for the trouble mentioned below. About a month ago the padding in the seat became pretty miserable. I upgraded with an ancient throw pillow from our couch, which solved it for now. It also should be noted that the pandemic means I've been using this chair for eight or nine hours a day, most every day. And, just last week I turned it over and tightened all the bolts, which reined-in some slop. Oh, and one last thing: the covering on our chair damages easily. Our lap cat leaves little dings and notches every time he gives a good claw stretch, etc. I was not, though, expecting the chair to be super-high-grade . . . c'est la vie.

I would have given a 5 star but its smaller than another similar design chair that i havealong the fact that more firm than what an easy chair should be (not a deal killer) Now with that al but I l said the directions are easy to follow and they provide the only tools you need to put it together. It took me a little longer but I did it by myself ( it says its a 2 person job) The chair has the look of quality and it and looks like a more expensive chair than it cost $300

This chair is very well made and a high quality piece of furniture. I bought it on the chance it might be nice and got very lucky because it is nice. It’s sits firmly but comfortably. It’s now my favorite and will continue to be for as long as I’m here! Great sitting chair!
