Boss Office Products Ivy League Executive Guest Chair, Vinyl, Black

This is a very good and sturdy chair. I’ve used it for a few months and I have experienced no problem with it.Very easy to assemble. Very easy to clean and looks very good

This is truly a 5 star product as far as I am concerned. I redecorated my office using mahogany and black furniture so these chars fit right in perfectly. I actually bought 3 chairs; 2 like this one for clients to sit with me at my desk, and the big matching executive chair for myself. I bought all three about 7 or 8 months ago and have never regretted my decision. The clients love them and are free with their compliments from the first time they sit down to the time they get up; they always express their pleasure at the total comfort of the seat, as well as at the angle and feel of the back and the feel of the arm rails.Like most other brands of chairs that require "assembly," this operation may not go without a problem or two. The bolt holes may not line up perfectly, so you might have to "encourage" the line-up; by that I simply mean brute force, but not excessively so! My line-up error was only very slight, making the correction simple and easy for two people. I did have a problem with a crack in one of the legs, but no sweat! I contacted the company and they expressed me out a complete replacement kit all at their expense.This is a great chair; after all of these months of heavy use it is still sturdy as it first was; it is professional looking and gives an impression of shear elegance! The only problem I have had with these chairs is presented by the resistance of my clients to the hint that I give when I rise from my chair and thank them for coming! They seem to always find something else to talk about as they continue to sit, ...in comfort! Yep; there's no doubt about it, ....this is truly a 5 star chair!

For $118 each, I can't complain too much. For total body support, it is hard to find a chair that can be used at a dining table, with back support and arm support, all of which is padded. I like the black color, as it goes with the cherry finish better than the "oxblood" or whatever they call the reddish color. This has a better contrast, and goes with just about any decor. I have black drapes across the entire room, and this is just what I wanted. One of the cushions, however, is not the same width as the others, and there is a noticable gap betwee the cushion and the wood brace. Also, there was a small strip (about the size of a toothpick) where the cherry finish had been scraped off. God knows that this thing is really made of, but probably some sort of synthetic wood - I can't really say for sure. But, whatever it is, underneath this scrape, it looks whitish and powdery, and not like genuine wood. I used some dark scratch cover and now it has disappeared. If this is intended for a family with heavy use, you better keep some scratch cover handy all the time. This would be OK for adults who are not going to abuse it, and who are not too obese, as the weight may damage this chair.

This chair looks like a very expensive chair but is reasonably priced. Very sturdy. I purchased 2 of these same chairs 10 years ago and very pleased they are still available, and they match my older chairs perfectly (people can’t tell the difference between the old vs the new until your sit on them, seat cushions not as firm as the new chairs). The only negative is larger people fit a little snug.

I purchased two of these chairs for my home office and I had a difficult time assembling the chairs. The toughest part to assemble are the arms. Why? It's difficult to align the holes. You have to align the hole on the arm with the hole on the side of the chair back. The fabric around the hole on the side of chair back was not secure. It was loose so that added to the difficulty. I had to feel for the hole between the arm and the side of the chair back. It's not much space. It took me more time than I care to admit to assembly the first chair.SOLUTION TO ASSEMBLE ARMS MORE EASILYNow, I was a wiser assembling the second chair. You can align the holes on the chair arm and side of the chair back by standing directly below a BRIGHT light. Eureka! Align the holes. Use the Allen Wrench to drop in the hole. If you hear a metal tap, you're good! It took me about 5 minutes to assemble the arms to the chair back.Then, I ran into a problem with the last part of the assembly which was to add the two screws on the bottom of the chair. One of the screws aligned perfectly while the other would only go half way in. Frustrating!QUALITY OF CHAIRSOverall, I like the chairs, but I am concerned about the longevity of the products. They look great but remember it's not fine leather. I don't have a lot of visitors in my office but if I do, they'll have somewhere to sit comfortably. There were a few scratches on the bottom leg of one chair. I used my furniture marker to fix this because I didn't want to package the chair and return it and wait for another one. Life's too busy, but the manufacturing company shouldn't send out products with scratches. One of the dowels was missing on the second chair but it comes with a long screw so hopefully this will keep the chair secure.Trust the reviews that rate this product a "3".RECOMMENDATIONS TO MANUFACTURERMake the printed instructions larger. Check the parts to make sure everything is in the package. And, make sure the furniture is free of scratches and has all of the dowels. Thank you!

This chair did not disappoint. Easy to assemble and very good quality materials. Great padding and I love the low back support. Everything aligned perfectly. I highly recommend this chair. Great value.
