I was researching for a chair to our home office and this chair stood out from others because of it's Versailles-cherry finished wood base and arms. My wife likes it very much and It added a kind of beauty we were looking to our home office. I was a bit hesitant to order it online because I read few comments from other folks that it tends to incline to one side and doesn't stand straight but ours is standing starlight and doesn't have such kind issues. Assembly instruction manual was clear and it was easy to assemble the chair. It took me a little bit more than 30 min because it took me sometime to align and screw the arms to the leather seat. They don't align easily because the leather tends to cover the holes where the screws should go. The only reason I gave it 4 starts is because of this reason. I believe the manufacturer can easily improve this finishing quality and provide a clean hole to screw to which will save assembly time.
Love the chair it is exactly what we needed to finish a home office. The color was exactly what was shown. The quality of the leather is beautiful and the comfort level is wonderful. It arrived on time and easy to put together. Thanks a happy customer.
I've ordered these chairs several time. It's clear that the manufacturer has down graded the quality of the materials and product. The metal is not as heavy, the wooden seat is thinner and the finish has chipped off easily with minimal use. Disappointing.
**UPDATE 10/29/2017** Going into a year and the chair has held up very, very well. Used in a home office for about 2 to 3 hours daily now for standard desk work and also relaxing while listening to music. Leather stretching originally noted was the only stretching that occurred in the first week for forming, I can only assume. The leather wear from rubbing against a desk does occur. But you just have to be careful as it is fairly soft and depends on desk height. All in all, I do recommend this chair and felt I should update as needed. **ORIGINAL REVIEW 12/07/2016** 2 stars for great design, lots of style but (-3) for low quality materials which will cause this chair to wear in less than six months with moderate use. Maybe an hour or two daily at a desk is too much for this chair. The "leather" is already stretching after a little more than a week. The chair arm has rubbed against my desk a few time causing the finish to wear. All in all, if it was $50, I'd say cool, I'll just replace as needed. But for this price, I'd rather just go with a higher quality chair. Seriously, do not purchase this if it will be a daily driver. FYI, height is adjustable and a tensioner for tilt and it has tilt lock.
