Great product but box was damaged on delivery.Luckily contents were no damaged. I would recommend this produc
Having paid 180 for another bonded leather chair very similar to this but from a high street store, which became un-bonded from its leather covering so needed replacing, this chair is outstanding value for money. It is being used as a gaming chair in my sons bedroom.(he is 6ft 3in tall, so no problems with size!) No faults or problems with it. Easy to put together and a great price (120)! Recommended
This is the best thing I have brought on Amazon very fast delivery and for the product very happy with it no problems I basically use it everyday I eat, sleep, play video games, search the web and back too sleep again no need for a bed with this product very comfy XD
Comfy but fake leather = sweaty bum ha ha! The covering material started to crack after less than 6 months.
Good quality chair at a very reasonable price,needs to be put together which takes about 3 mins,I placed my order late on a Friday night and they arrived first thing Sunday morning,you can’t ask for better than that.
Very comfortable chairs and look much more expensive than they are. Easier to put together if you secure the lugs on the seat and back earlier than is indicated in the directions, which could be clearer. But this niggle did not put us off buiying a second chair once we had started to use the first and liked it.
Purchased this after being let down by a High St retailer. It’s a fab piece, very comfortable and it’s size is not bulky so it doesn’t overpower the room like some furniture.
Used the Next Day delivery option – received messages keeping me updated and the tracking system for the carriers was state of the art – even told me the name of the driver – well worth the small charge.
My only negative comment would be, there is a fair degree of DIY assembley required so this is would not be an ideal purchase for anyone likely to challenged by this in terms of ability or strength (eg. a lone elderly person), but definitely worth getting someone to do it for you it you want a nice item for a very reasonable price.
Great chair , so comfortable , good colour and fabric soft. super quick delivery .
it a nice big comfortable chair, the only issue I have with it is that you can not a just the height and the chair is quite low to the ground.
This is a fabulous chair. And so easy to put together. Looks just great to. Very pleased.
Im pleased with it Only complaint! I ordered the brown! it says brown on box , but it was a black one!! Cant blame the seller really as it was packed in China did think about sending it back, but what the hell it wont be any more comfortable so not bothering !! Some packer in far off Catha having a bad day????
happy with this chair really well made for the price i payed and comfy if your unsure if to buy or not one word just buy it you will not be disappointed
Great value for money. Very comfortable.
I’m 6’6″ and it just about fits me (height wise)
Easy to put together, comfortable and great value for money!
An excellent chair & footstool. Easy to put together, very comfortable, stylish and my favourite chair. What excellent value for money!
Better than expected .have seen similar chair at double the price.
Good service fast delivery highly recommended thank you. No complaints at all with the chair went together well and its very comfortable.
I can see why people buy online! Arrived in 1 day, emails said a 1 hour slot and they were here within 15 minutes of the start time by cheerful driver. The chairs took about 15 minutes each to assemble – a child could do it. They are stylish, comfortable and appear to be very well made, the material being quite thick and durable. For the price, they are just as described and very good value.
Absolutely lovely . Good value and sturdy would recommend this to you all easy to put together and stylish xx reclines well comfy comfy
good value, and comfortable
not easy to put together, and a bit sweaty in the hot weather!
but for the money, you can’t go wrong
this is a lot of chair for the money, maybe doesn`t look
that padded from the picture but it`s very comfy, with good support.
Very sturdy & well made, the faux leather is warmer to sit on than
leather. They are very easy to assemble, 20,25 mins for the 1st
one I ordered but the wife can`t see green cheese so she got one
too and I put it together in 10 mins flat. Argos do an almost
identical product but want 199 each for them. I don`t think you`ll
find a product out there as well made as this for the price.
Very good quality and dad thinks it’s really comfortable! Mum says he sits in it most of the day ! Quite easy to assemble, didn’t take my sister too long! Arrived swiftly. Thanks!
A bargain when I purchased. Quick delivery. Instructions included but very simple to assemble. Nice soft feel, comfy chair..perfect for in front of the TV.
Bought these to put in conservatory. They were quite easy to put together if you were methodical. Recommend them. Great buy.
It was a fathers day present from our children to their dad ‘ he was very pleased with the chair and stool.
Great value, comfortable appears as close to being leather as it can without being the real thing. I’m considering buying another – absolutely love it and cannot believe it cost less than 100!
he chair is of excellent quality and so comfortable
it provides a perfect environment in which to relax .
The stool gives that extra comfort to complete the luxury.
Also customer response by Julien Bowen ,in my experience is first class
and could not be bettered
I suffer from backache and find this chair very comfortable
it was quite easy to assemble and didnt take long to do. I would recomend this chair most definately
This is my chair its great comfortable nice to relaxing watching TV & Reading
I would recommend this chair ok
Bought this chair as an addition to my bedroom to save me sitting on my bed when Playing Xbox or watching films which can get uncomfortable extremely quickly.
Was easy to assemble, possible with one person, easier with two just to get the arms in position. Material is extremely soft to touch, very plush, and incredibly comfortable. Has a high premium feel to it with a moderate price from the material of the chair as well as the wood feet. Reclining mechanism is just the right resistance, not too sensitive to slide the moment you sit down, but you dont find yourself pushing either.
Very comfortable, would recommend.
My daughter-in-law bought this chair as the price was great, when it arrived it was delivered on time and is everything she wanted, she loves it.
Chair is very comfortable and is of good quality, very easy to assemble. I would highly recommend this to anyone looking for a recliner.
Love this chair and foot stool and I’m an O.A.P and put it together myself, it suits my flat where I have limited space and looks very smart.
very comfartoble and relaxing I would recommend to anyone .good value get one today if you enjoy reclining .good luck!
Good quality chair, sturdy and supports back well. Setting up is a little bit tricky, but easy with 2 people
Best price I could find online and very fast, no problems delivery. The chair itself is of reasonable quality for what I paid. Assembly average if you have already done this type of thing before, if you have not ,I would say take your time and follow the instructions very carefully.
Would I buy this item again, or recommend it yes, you only get what you pay for.
I am satisfied with the chair.
I am very pleased with this recliner, it is very comfortable, good quality, easy to assemble
and fantastic value for money.
Great service and the product it self is worth every penny. I recommend this to anyone as I am thinking about purchasing another one.
I bought this for my dad at christmas. It provides good back support and is extremely comfortable. I sit in it myself when he’s out!!
I found the instructions limited BUT even so, if you let common sense prevail, it is very easy to put together.
I’ts now a month old and no problems as of yet. Worth it for the price.
Construction was perfectly straightforward,though a certain amount of firm pressure is required to align the bolt holes in the arm rests.
The instructions are easy to follow and include an illustrated parts checklist. The parts are packed in logical groups making it easy to identify what is what with the different sized nuts, bolts and washers seperately bagged, making identification straightforward. The finished chair and stool are perfectly level on completion.
The only flaw was that the thread on the handscrew used to adjust the reclining action was not cut accurately, making it impossible to install. A quick phone call to the included Julien Bowen support number had a perfect replacement sent to me by return. The company clearly believes in good customer support.
The included tools are of better than some I have found in some self assembly kits in the past and were used to build the chair, it would have been slightly quicker to use my own toolkit, however, I was too lazy to go out and get them as those included posed no problem.
This chair represents excellent value with alternatives with more sophisticated reclining mechanisms, say, costing significantly more.
Bought for grandson who is 14 he wanted it for a gaming chair he loves it . really good value for money
Easy to assemble, even on Christmas day. This is a very good quality swivel chair with footstool which also tilts.
Would definitely recommend this produc
I bought this for my son’s bedroom. It is large in this setting but not obtrusively so. He uses it when playing his xbox games and says it is very comfortable.
Despite coming in a pretty hefty box with some substantial padding etc, one of the legs for the chair had a split in it, though as it was near the centre and did not appear to affect the structural integrity of the stand I decided to keep it.
Assembly was straightforward but I did find some attention was needed to ensure the respective bases were level before finally tightening all the bolts; initially there was some ‘wobble’, and had I simply assumed that lining everything up would ensure stability I’d have been in trouble. Though I haven’t ‘really’ tried it seems that once the chair is attached to the base it is difficult-if-not-impossible to remove it again, which would have made adjustment of the feet extremely difficult. Nevertheless, like other reviewers, I was able to complete the assembly single handed but for some assistance connecting the backrest to the seat base (some force was needed to line up the pins) and again to line up the seat pillar with the seat stand.
Overall, I would say that at this price the chair represents very good value for money and but for the slight damage to one of the feet I would have given this item 5 stars
Good buy and better still good value for the money.
Had it a little while now and its been used and abused by the whole household!
Very comfortably looks OK as well.
I purchased this chair for my father in law whos lives with us.
He likes to watch television in his room.
We set it up Christmas Eve whilst he was out,when he came back and saw it he was choked and shed a few tears.
A great chair,well made,great looking chair.
Highley recomend the chair and the quick delivery
Really easy to build, comfy. Definetly shouldnt be used as a computer chair though, way to small. But excellent for just a tv chair or something to relax on.
My 23 year old son really wanted one of these type of chairs, and so bought this as a Christmas present. The great price meant that it was in budget. It is not leather, but it feels very close to a soft leather feel. It went down really well and has been the favourite chair for everyone as we lounge about over the Christmas holiday.
Item arrived within 24 hours of ordering. It is great. Very comfortable and was easy to put together. A really good buy
I had read reviews which said these chairs split/crack after just one use but I haven’t found that and have used the chair daily for almost a week (if I do I’ll be expecting amazon to deal with it to my satisfaction!) Its very very comfortable and my husband is extremely jealous so might get one for him too. Only issue is with the fact that it has to be put together by yourself which we found very difficult – takes some strength and dexterity.
Very comfortable chair easy to assemble better than some dearer chairs well worth the money would reccomend buying this chai
Very good quality for the price
Delivered on time
Pretty easy to built when fallowing the instructions
Just what I wanted
I researched a few similar products but ultimately settled on this one. So far I have to say that I am delighted with my choice. The quality and comfort are superb, well worth the price. It is also a little more compact than I was expecting, to the extent that I’ve found that it tucks nicely under my home desk, doubling as an extremely comfortable computer/office chair. Highly recommended.
simple assembly although quite a few parts to self assemble
low price, yet seems a solid chair once built
doesn’t rock, has manual adjuster for recline options, but swivels side to side ok
foot stool is a bit bigger than expected and higher but solid enough bit more like a small coffee table.
recommended for folk that want a simple chair to sit in with your laptop on your knee and somewhere to but it (the foot stool) from time to time.
You get a lot for the money, very comfortable and great for relaxing, watching TV or surfing the web on your table
Very pleased – no problems encountered when I assembled the chair. Good value for the money, when compared with the disappointing ‘Amsterdam’ recliner.
I read a lot of the reviews about this item, and I agree. This is a well made chair, easy to assemble, and although it is not leather the material is very comfortable. Top marks for Julian Bowen. Now looking at one of his tub chairs because of the quality of this recliner.
Very comfortable and good looking chair, just one drawback, it is not high enough. I have overcome this by screwing “riser blocks”, stained and polished to match, under the legs supplied.
I absolutely love this product. I have been suffering from back pains and felt a recliner might help them. I managed to put the chair and stool together without any help just by following the instructions given. My back pains have now gone and the chair is so comfortable I have found myself falling asleep sitting in it. The footstool is the perfect height and being flat rather than some of the tilted ones on the market is a bonus. The chair looks great, was an amazing price, and is a purchase I do not regret.
We are very happy with the armchair, easy to assemble, comfortable to sit in and very good value for Money.
The only unconvenient fact remains that comfy-living amazon Marketplace does only ” UK deliveries”
We Do Unterstand the logistic reasons, but living just beside the Northern Ireland Border it is very disappointing.
Gerard and Erika Collins
Exactly as described, comfortable, slight difficulty with assembly. But we’ll worth the effort, I would definitely recommend this product to friends
Good chair..Exactly what it said on the tin! Took a bit longer than expected to construct but it’s solid for price.
I bought this chair as I have a damaged spine and need a suitable chair,which I can adjust and this does the job magnificently. the only drawback were the instructions,which are awful,i spent a good 15 mins looking for a bracket,which turned out to be an arm,but in the illustration,it was the same size as the brackets,hence the confusion.the manufacturer gave a phone number,but no one was there ,as it was a bank holiday Saturday. in the end,i disregarded the instructions,which were spread across two pages,which meant I had to keep turning over.i found it much easier to put together on instinct,so I have given it four stars.on the next working day,the manufacturers,did phone ,to check it was alright though and in all fairness,i would buy another,as the price,its terrific.
Bought this as a cheap alternative to home furniture as new home would need the main window removed to be able to get a “proper” sofa etc into the house. Takes about 10-15mins to put together and comes with tools. Only small gripe is your bum can get a bit sweaty when sitting on it but otherwise no complaints, ha ha! Very happy.
I love to relax with a book or my Kindle in this chair with my feet up!! Definitely one of life’s little luxury moments!!
Ordered for our granddaughter’s first flat on her own. She is delighted with it and raves about it.
Has become her pride and joy in her new flat. Being a professional young lady her opinion is so important to us.
Excellent service and delivery once again from Amazon.
It’s quite a job fixing the chair together single handed but once it’s together it’s really worth it. It’s nice and comfy. Super fast delivery.
Excellent chair and footstool but for that person who wants to come home after a very hard day’s work you want to feel as though you are sinking into a bed of pillows. More stuffing please! I certainly wouldn’t mind having to pay 30% more for “the perfect chair”. Easy to put together and very well packaged, would have given it 5 stars had it have been stuffed a little more 🙂
It was even easier to put together than the reviews led me to believe. Did the whole thing on my own in about 20 minutes. So far a very comfy chair, haven’t sat back on my sofa once since I got it – I have put eternal dibs on the chair! At the end of the day, its just a case of seeing how long it lasts. Being as cheap as it is, not sure what to expect but so far so good. I would definitely recommend as a cheap alternative to the 300 mark jobbies.
I love this chair. It is really comfortable and looks great. It was easy to build and I consider it to be great value for money. it was dispatched very quickly by the company and arrived within days.
i Had this chair for a while now and its wearing very well, also very comfortable. excellent value for money!!
Excellent value. Diagram not immediately clear but no real difficulty in assembling. Contact on bar was slightly bent but could be hammered straight.
I was nervous about buying a chair I hadn’t tested yet but this was a comfortable chair at a good price. The faux leather feels good, and the chair seems sturdy. It is quite quick to assemble and has been getting regular use since I bought i
Easy to build from clear instructions. Nice product. very comfortable. Woould recommend to others thinking of buying an office chair/ relaxe
Extremely comfortable chair and footstool. On the whole reasonably easy to assemble although at one point in the assembly, some brute force is required to enable bolts/holes to line up properly. Not a problem though.
Very pleased with this purchase & although its not real leather it does look very smart–actually better than some of the real leather ones we have looked at. Very prompt delivery.
Well done Mr Bowen well put together looks great with a very low price and its really comfortable Its a bit wide for moving room to room but if you don’t do that very often its everything you would want in a swivel recliner Highly Recommended.
Exactly what was required. Very comfortable and ideal for viewing television, reading or just having a nap. Thoroughly recommend it for the hedonist.
My wife purchased this chair and loves it, she is only 5FT tall and her feet touch the floor which makes it very comfortable, it reclines easily very very satisfied.
I ordered 2 of these wonderful chairs,they arrived very quickly & are so comfortable both my Husband & myself love them & they look great too.
originally looking at a relaxateeze avanti recliner which is leather and at least twice the price of this Julian bowen malmo recliner.well pleased I bought this Julian bowen malmo recliner instead-sat here writing this review on it-so very comfy and easy to recline in.very easy to put together-managed it by myself-instructions okay but putting it together is not rocket science.in short-don’t hesitate-believe the reviews and order with confidence,plus ordered from amazon Thursday night 09/05/13 and it was delivered Monday afternoon 13/05/2013-3 days before the due date of 16/05/2013-result!
Bought this item on the 8th, it was deliver on the 9th.
Assembly was fairly painless, instructions are a little unclear (Footstool) (Armrests) Made me feel like I was going to break the armrests, though I suppose this is the same with all self assembly items.
Quite low to the floor, though this turned out to be a benefit as the Armrests fall just under my pc workstation so no chance of damage the faux leather with accidental collisions. Will keep my eye out for durability, as this is my 4th chair in 2 years.
he chair is very comfotable and although not real leather, it matches our dark browm leather furniture better than expected. It was easy to assemble and very good value for money. I would recommend this item to anyone who is looking for a nice peace of furniture and is looking for a comfortable seat.
Easily assembled in 15 minutes or so, instructions are basic but what you’d expect of any “flat pack” products.
The chair itself is very comfortable, it should come with a warning… You will be prone to falling asleep!!
Good price too, at just over 100 you can’t go wrong. The build quality is excellent, everything is really sturdy and the stitching is top notch. I’ll sum it all up in 3 easy words… Add to cart!
Absolutely delighted with it – so comfortable ! Turned out to be much easier to assemble than expected.
This is genuine value for money and if you want to relax & rise with ease, then this would be perfect for you. Also a nice piece of furniture to have in the room. 5 star on all counts.
absolutly fab, easy to put together, got it one day after ordering, very comfy, easy to recline.looks good, worth twice as much. very well padded. best bargain i have seen on amazon.
I was looking for a recliner for some time and decided on this one on account of the good reviews it got. Was not disappointed. Item arrived quickly and was packaged well. My son put together the chair and stool quite quickly even though the instructions was a little unclear. A few people spoke about the holes on the arm of the chair not aligning properly we also found this to be the case on one of the arms but managed to fix this. The recline goes quite far back and is really comfortable. I am really pleased with this purchase. Would definitely recommend.
good item u need good seat or not u must buy this one i t can help u enjoy u life
This is by far the best thing I have ever purchased from Amazon. I got a cheaper chair just like this one from b&m bargains that was terrible and I had to take it back. This one though is excellent, brilliant support all the way down my shoulders and back and is the perfect height for relaxing in. I wouldnt buy this if you are after an office chair unless you have very long arms. Its abit low for that but Im 6ft 3″ and my feet are just nicely on the floor if you dont use the foot stool. Reclines to a decent amount too.
excellent product reasonably priced must be easily assembled because my grandaughter did it it is also very comfortable and just right in suze
Very comfortable chair, excellent value for money, very happy with this purchase, would definitely recommend this chair to other people.
bought this for my son but have used it myself very comfortable and very easy to sleep on ! was concerned because it was cheaper than a lot of similar chairs but quality and price made it one of the best buys ever !!
Would recommend this to anyone who wants a chair that is great to relax in.
