Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

Given the price paid for this piece ($480 + change), the purchase was a solid transaction. Pros and cons follow below. Pros: - Shipping and logistics: The chaise came pre-assembled, save for the screw-in legs. Courier was polite and communication was excellent as I have come to expect with Amazon - Comfort: Firm cushions, back pillow, square pillow. Comfort is subjective - I happen to prefer firmer chairs as I do with my mattress, so take that for what it's worth - Material: Soft and easy to vacuum - Description: Fabric color matched description and photos perfectly Cons: - Leg installation: The legs are bolstered by a metal border, which is good for stability, but bad for the fabric. The thin felt under the chair as well as some of the fabric on the lower border ripped while screwing in the legs. I was very careful to mitigate any tearing, but there was only so much I could do - not worth returning the chair for these minor issues - Thin upholstery: Cover feels thin. Would be disappointed if we paid $800 + but for the price, we did not expect an extremely thick fabric. If this wears over time, we can always get it re-upholstered If the option allows, I would recommend a darker color. Ours could get dirty easily, so we are careful never to get any food or drinks near it. Having it in the master bedroom certainly helps. Moving it around requires 2 people (two smaller women could handle the job just fine). EDIT: December 2012 After 9 months of use, the primary cushion shows considerable disformity. Adult household without abuse, so I am disappointed with the chair's ability to hold up to daily use. Curious as to whether this is due to the cushion's material, but given the price point, I would have expected the cushion to mainain its form much better than it has. Will update further.
