Definitely a great purchase:
I bought this chair to be a multi-use salon chair, I was very specific in looking for a chair because I need it for makeup artistry and for brows. I had a really hard time finding a chair that sits up 90° and also sits back 160°. It was important that I had both options because when doing makeup I prefer for clients to sit straight up and down, and for brows I prefer for them to lay back almost all the way. I also prefer for clients to be eye level with me when I'm doing their makeup and I wanted to find a chair that raised up hydraulically high enough for me to do so. This sits almost as high as my director's chair. The director chair I have from seat to floor is 30" and this chair is 28" I believe. It works perfectly!
The shipping was a little bit slow since it arrived in two separate packages, I think it took a total of about a week and a half. The chair is very heavy so I did need my husband to help me load it into the salon, but that also means it's very sturdy. I did test the weight limit, I had my husband sit in it who weighs 380 lb and it reacted perfectly.
It's very comfortable and feels very luxurious. I love the cushions and the foot rest. It also doesn't feel unstable when it's at it's highest setting.
Minor complaints:
My only complaints are it's a little bit of a darker gray than I envisioned based on the pictures, but it's still very neutral and goes with anything that you have in your salon.
Directions were a little bit difficult to understand, and there is a couple of things that were left out of the instructions that were necessary.
There is also a small tear at the bottom of the seats, but it's underneath of the chair so it doesn't bother me however I'm assuming it happened and shipping. Because there is metal just behind the piece of leather that I'm assuming poked through. Personally this is not a big deal, but I do think it would be important to know.
Overall, this is a great purchase!
I do think this chair is working perfectly for what I need it for, the price was very reasonable, it's a very comfortable chair and certainly looks more luxurious than a typical salon chair which is what I was going for. Communication with the seller was very easy and quick, and while the tracking was a little bit delayed it all arrived perfectly and within a reasonable time. I had to sign for both packages which made me feel more secure about the whole purchase as well. Highly recommend!
