Comfortable and the facings look and feel good, they are however only ‘bonded leather’ so don’t expect them to last. . A large comfortable office chair. I have owned two over the past 10 years, however the latest one, although i have had five years use out of it, is now being replaced with a pu faux leather one of a different make. The facings can only loosely be described as leather as they are melted down scraps of left over leather, dyed and then bonded to material. Mine has over the past two years cracked and come away from the material that it was bonded to. It still functions as a comfortable chair, but leaves tiny pieces of cracked ‘leather’ all over the floor and the chair looks scruffy. The ‘bonded leather’ does give it a luxury feel, however i believe that a pu material (like the back of the chair) would in fact be more durable and would have meant i would not have needed to replace my chair for approx another 3-5 years (8-10 years in total). It does seem a bit of a waste as the whole chair is now destined for landfill.

Reviews from purchasers :

  • Comfortable and the facings look and feel good, they are however only ‘bonded leather’ so don’t expect them to last.
  • Great bang for the buck
  • Good Value Leather Chair – Looks Great

Had it for 6 years but still like new. . Very comfy and came quickly, had it for 6 years but still like new. . Just dont like the arms they keep getting loose after a month and you have to keep tightening it but its not a big issue. The chair is very comfy and strong.

Why is there thread lock in the screws?. The screws seem to have been i served with thread lock and as a result were extremely difficult to extract. Heads ere not sufficiently large to suit larger more powerful screwdrivers. Without the thraed lock, assembly would have been relatively easy.

    Comfortable, looks smart and my wife loves it. I bought this chair for my wife’s 80th birthday, it was so she could use it at table and also watch tv in comfortl. I had it delivered to my daughters home for assembly and we found it came very well packaged, and all complete. Had a slight issue with one of the arms, but a phone call to the manufacturer explaining this and another pair were dispatched the next day. It has been in use for a couple of weeks now, is well made, comfortable, looks smart and my wife loves it. Plus of course an excellent service from the makers.

    1. Chair was delivered by courier very quickly. Unfortunately it was slightly damaged. I contacted supplier who replied immediately and sent a replacement part in a few days. The chair was quite simple to put together (we are not diy people). It is comfortable and solid feeling, the wood is attractive. Just not as ‘leathery’ as i would have liked. Don’t really know what ‘leather faced’ means but it is not much different to faux leather.

    Good value leather chair – looks great. The supplier corresponded almost immediately to say that it would take a couple of weeks to deliver and that i could pull out of the sale if i wish. I didn’t and i’m glad i didn’t. The chair represents excellent value – the leather and wood finish push it above the norm for this price. My only criticisms could be 1) the wait & 2) the chair can’t be adjusted in a rocking forward or back motion. If you can wait & don’t care about the latter (as i don’t) then i would whole heartedly recommend. The seller also answered a query i had over delivery very quickly – so they’re helpful and that’s another good mark in my books.

    I had reason to move the home office very recently and decided that the 20 year old swivel chair had to go. Since i had major spinal surgery in 2004 which was not successful, i was tentative about the selection process but now i am very glad i opted for this product. It arrived promptly and in the mother of all boxes, assembly was swift and without issue. Once assembled (10 minutes) the moment of truth arrived and it was a happy moment indeed. Although this chair has no adjustment for lumbar support or arm height, it just works for me, in fact i find it more comfortable than my reclining leather sofas. I’ve spent up to 18 hours in it in any one day and find no fatigue or other issues arising; some chairs can rub, etc. The spin is free and no wobble, the castors are so free that on a hard floor, turning the chair can send it moving.

    1. A great chair for my home office, easy to assemble, comfortable to sit on with good support where it is needed, has all the features you expect of an executive style office chair. As one other cxomment has mentioned the arm covers do move but that is not an issue as far as i am concerned.
