Expert Reviews


What reviewers liked

This contemporary chair looks fantastic in any home with modern décor. There are five colors to choose from; blue, brown, dark gray, gray, and orange, so you’re bound to find the perfect shade to match any room. The solid, smooth mahogany frame also adds a touch of elegance and class and blends well with most interiors. But just because this chair is stylish doesn’t mean it’s not comfortable too. The generously padded seat and super soft fabric upholstery make this a cozy place to sit and read even for extended periods of time.
The accent chair has an impressive depth. It is deep enough to add a pillow at the back. You can sit all the way through. You won’t feel wanting for more space. With the seat’s width, you can have a child sit beside you. The chair features pocket spring cushions. They hold their shape over time and provide better support than ordinary foam cushions do. The springs make the chair much more durable. Spring cushions are typically a smarter option due to their longevity. They are generally more durable than foam cushions.
The coils are covered with thick foam padding. The seat is based on zigzag springs, which will spread the weight around the surface and last more. The polyester upholstery fabric is durable and easy to look after – vacuum it every now and then. Should you stain it, simply spot clean immediately.

What reviewers didn't like

The only downside is that the arms aren’t padded.
I do wish that it came with wooden caps to conceal the bolts. Without the caps, the bolts are easily noticeable.
Armrests are not cushioned.
