just what i want! Before I start on my thoughts of this chair I want to say that when I ordered I decided I should have gotten the dark grey (pictured) and not the light grey I ordered. I did the contact seller thing through and they changed my color for me. So I was happy with customer service. Also I ordered this chair Sunday night and received it Wednesday so really fast shipping which also made me happy. Now onto what I think about the chair .
Let me start by pointing out the good parts. Its pretty easy to put together and I would say 95% of the instructions were pretty clear to understand. It comes in just one box so there is no worrying if all of the boxes will arrive at the same time. Also once put together it looks really nice. The fabric is not itchy which was something I worried about. The bottom pulls out smoothly and goes back in just as smoothly. It also appears to be pretty sturdy as Im sitting on it while I write this review.
Now the semi negative (depending on your preferences). This is VERY firm. The cushions are not as thick as I expected. In fact I can feel the hard board through the padding when I was taking it out of the box. I would compare the thickness of the cushions to your basic futon mattress- itll do the job but you may not want to sleep on it too many nights -especially if you have hit the age that when you wake up in the morning and you snap, crackle or pop. Since I bought this primarily for an 80+ grandmother to sleep on when she comes to visit so I may be taking another (slightly more expensive route) and try to sell this one to balance out the cost. My back is starting to hurt sitting on this chair so I will stop there. Hope this helps with making a decision.
