I wanted to use the chair for a little while before writing a review, and now that its been 3 weeks I figured Id finally do it! I work from home and sit in this chair for 6 / 10hrs a day, even using it often on the weekends.
SHORT VERSION: Overall, this chair was a great purchase (so far) and I am really happy with it. Its cute, seems to be of good quality, and has been a really great addition to my home.
LONG VERSION:
First off, this chair is very cute and I am super pleased with the quality. Im pretty sure the legs are real wood! I spent a LONG time trying to find a chair for my desk. I wanted something cute and comfortable because I work from home and sit at my desk all day. There is some sagging in the fabric after 3 weeks of daily use, so I am uncertain of how long it will look nice, but overall I am pleased.
DELIVERY:
I ordered this chair on May 20th and received it on the 28th! It came in great condition with no issues. Very easy and quick to assemble.
It DID smell weird when I first got it. I sted using it immediately but had to stop bc it was distracting. I left it near an open window in my bedroom for the day and then sprayed it with a little bit of linen freshener and its now fine.
QUALITY:
This chair seems to be really good quality for the price. The legs appear to be real wood, and there are no inconsistencies or blemishes in the fabric. However, sometimes I do hear a noise that sounds like the fabric glue is coming ap when Im sitting in it? I can never see any damage, but it does seem like the fabric is sting to sag in some spots already. I am a little worried about long/term use, but after 3 weeks of daily use, it still looks great.
SIZE:
I was most worried about the size of this chair because other reviews mentioned it was a little small/narrow. I was surprised at how wide it actually is! Its more of a scooped seat than the images on the listing show, so theres plenty of room for me. I am 56, 140lbs, a size 6 / 8 in womens clothing, with 35ish inch hips (40ish at my widest point around my butt) and I have quite a bit of room in this chair. I dont know if Id sit cross/legged just bc I dont wanna test the quality that much, but I can sit with one leg up easily. When I am sitting all the way to the back, my heels just barely rest on the floor. The back of the chair goes to my mid/back below my shoulder blades.
COMFORT:
This chair is definitely not super cushy, but I personally like the stability and sturdiness of the cushion. I feel like, for a cheap chair, its better to have a sturdier foam than a soft foam that will sag. It feels like it might last longer than a softer chair might. The back is angled a bit so it does force you to lean back to use the backrest if youre sitting all the way back in the chair. I sit like an idiot though, slumped at the front of the chair, so its not a huge issue for me. I use it every day and only have issues if I am sitting weird for too long. Very compact.
After 3 Weeks of Daily Use, Still Pleased
