Okay, its not an expensive chair and its just one I bought for my small home office as a place for my partner to occasionally sit while we chat. But, just. wow.
The build quality on this is questionable. As in, did they get someone from marketing to design it. First up, the first two pieces you screw together are the back and bottom cushions. Because, when I think of the two easiest surfaces to screw together, I think big, squishy pillows with a hole I cannot see to line up without a flashlight.
To tip it off there was a staple RIGHT IN THE WAY of the threaded opening that I CANNOT SEE through the other cushion. Which, I had to pull out after twenty frustrated minutes of trying to screw it into the blocked opening in the first place. After that it all gets screwed into the chair frame anyway.
Did I mention that the felt flap where all of the hardware is stored will constantly get in your face as youre trying to line up the two cushioned pieces. Because it will, so get a safety pin or some sewing pins to pin it back.
Very little thought was given to how this chair would be assembled. While I understand youll only need to assemble it once, its not any less annoying or poorly thought out. It wouldve cost next to nothing to install a wood, or even plastic thread plate to either side of the cushion or to include a pin or spot of velcro to hold up the backing from getting in your face. But thats too big of an ask.
It looks okay. Its only comfortable on your back if you put the included cushion between you and the chair. The back of the chair is very stiff and puts your head at a weird and uncomfortable angle. Wouldnt recommend for extended use. Unless youre trying to get someone out of your house faster.
Assembly Was A Pain
