" ... Seat is way too deep, and the back lean back too much. ... "
" ... The screws were offset. ... Impossible to put it together. ... "
" ... Now just a year later after only being used by her, and not often, an entire leg snapped off. ... The chair was treated well, not abused, and today the leg snapped off. ... "
" ... The seatback is basically just clamped to the cheap vinyl of the base of the seat and as soon as it tears, the seat is basically trash. ... "
" ... I've had it for a week and already there is over an inch wobble stemming from the way the seat connects to the stem. ... "
" ... The back is supported ONLY by the arms, amd the mounts holding the arms in place are poorly secured to very weak plywood. ... Once only ONE of the anchor nuts go out, the back loses all support and falls back. ... The chair is then entirely useless you cut open the leather and rebuild the attach point yourself. ... "
" ... then the seat cushion began falling apart . ... "
" ... Only thing to be careful about is when putting the back rest make sure you have right slots and keep the sides loose. ... I put it in the wrong slot and tried to lift it, the inner sides got scratched. ... "
