## Description

Product Description

Review: Nice and comfortable chair - I only just had this delivered today. Wasnt expecting til thursday. That was a nice surprise. Packing was decent, and the setup instructions where pretty simple. Did panic a little at first when i saw that the Back support brackets was loose and nothing was holding it in place, whereas the other side was so tough to move and even when pushing the lever up it didnt move, thought it was faulty.. I didnt force as didnt want to break. so carried on setting up, in the hope itll sort itself out. which it did once i installed the back rest onto the bracket. as i sat back and held the lever, with a little force it was freely moving up and down. Chair is comfortable once you can adjust the pillows to your liking. PVC Leather finish looks pretty slick. 2 bug bears. 1)the arm rests. they move from side to side. nothing i do tightens this. In the hope seller reads this and can explain how to avoid this. otherwise I may have to send back. 2) the straps that hold the pillow and back support, need to not be so visible. all in all a decent chair. only time will tell. UPDATE Contacted seller on saturday about the arm rests. Sent me another set of arms by tuesday. Super responsive. Just installed them and have made a huge difference. Thank you! changed to 5 star
Review: Excellent & a most comfortable chair for the price - Once I found my optimum spring tension & height this has proven to be an excellent chair - in use for at least 8 hours per day. The nearest I could find on line was around £240, so for £80 decided to try this first. The tilting mechanism stuck a lot while sitting forward & was very noisy upon sitting back (hence one star off for assembly). Customer service by direct email was excellent & they eventually sent out a replacement part for nothing. Not overly upholstered, but that suits me at 12 stone, 6' height. With feet flat on floor, a near-lowest height is my personal preference, spring set about medium giving a comfortable recline of a few inches on sitting back. For me, the ability to push arm rests vertical & out of the way is a real boon - hard to find this facility, especially in a chair at this price point. Thank you, Oaklands, and well done!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Nice chair
*by J***R on 22 November 2023*

For the money this chair is spot on. The padding is good and comfortable to sit on. The moveable are rests are a bit less stable but ok. The chair is easy to assemble but requires two people to fit the back on. It was quite difficult to align the holes and screws without someone else holding the back panel in place, but once fitted the chair is vey stable.
