Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of 6 "NEW" PARSON CHAIRS BLACK LEATHERETTE WITH CHERRY WOOD LEGS
Customer Review: Looks as good as high-end versions
Summary: 4 Stars
We bought a set of 6 for our glass-top cappuccino dining table (purchased through Macy's) as a cheaper alternative than buying the Parsons chairs from Macy's as they were $200/chair for the fabric version of $400/chair for the leather version. Buying this here saved us quite a bit.
After a lot of looking around for this style chair, this was definitely the best bang for the buck. Most places, even Target, would have these at $99/chair. I was able to get it here for roughly $560 all-in (chairs and shipping).
I received the set of 3 boxes (2 chairs/box) within 4 days. The boxes are 40 lbs each. Very light considering the size of the box. Even with my recently operated on ankle, I was able to carry the boxes up two flights of stairs with no problem (I am 5'10", 200 lb male).
The first thing you will notice when opening the box is a chemical smell. I'm not necessarily sure what it is, but it's neither too pleasant or too pungent - airing out the room definitely helped. Each chair is made up of 3 pieces: the backing w/ two legs already attached, the seat cushion, and two separate legs you must attach. The "leather" material feels pretty decent, smooth yet not too plastic feeling; it definitely has some texture to it, which gives it a pretty sturdy feeling as well.
The most obvious part that reveals the chairs' "cheapness" is the bottom of the seat cushion. You can see that the frame of the cushion is made of cheap wood (almost like a thick balsa wood) that's been coated with some sort of dark sealing chemical (perhaps that's the smell). You'll notice that the leather material is relatively thin but I don't think it will break without aggressive coaxing. All the materials are stapled into the wood and some of the staples sticking out (but nothing crazy). Luckily, this is the bottom of the chair and the only time you'll see it is when you're assembling them.
Which brings me to my next point. Assembly is pretty easy. It took me less than 10 mins/chair. There are 10 screws/chair and one wooden dowel. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND NOT using the supplied allen wrench. Use one that has a handle or one that is part of an allen key set (the ones that look like a swiss army knife). It will make twisting the screws into the wood much easier and faster. I thought I would run into issues with screwing them into the cheap wood, but no splitting or splintering occurred. It's pretty flexible wood and can take quite a bit of pressure. That being said, don't apply too much pressure with the screws. The best thing to do is loosely screw them in by hand and then finish them off evenly with the allen wrench.
All in all, a great buy for a chair that looks much more than it is. It is also very comfortable and cozy.
Highly recommended for those on a budget.
