Parsons Dining Chair with Nailed Trim

Boy, there are a lot of positives. To begin, the chairs arrived quickly, the packaging was terrific, and there was no damage to the chairs when they arrived. The chairs seem to be nicely constructed and are very sturdy once assembled. I bought two sets of two, and the chairs all matched perfectly. I am overweight (not obese, but overweight), and these chairs are comfortable for a long visit after a meal. The seat has springs and straps for support and a foam cushion for comfort. The back is curved subtly for lumbar comfort as well. There is no way a dining chair is going to be as comfortable as a $1000 recliner or easy chair, but they are above average for a dining chair. I really wanted blue pu leather for an update to my kitchen because I am too lazy or too old to paint my lower kitchen cabinets that color. The upholstery is a nice blue color, feels nice, and cleans easily with a damp cloth. With the darker color, I can’t imagine a problem with stains. Overall, I think the chairs are very attractive, and the nailhead trim on the seat really sets them off. Each chair leg has a protective pad on the bottom, and the front 2 legs have screw-in furniture leveler glides. Now for the assembly. There were a couple of reviews that made assembly seem very hard, but it was much easier then expected to assemble the chairs. The only tool needed is the allen wrench provided. All of the nuts and bolts required for assembly are nicely organized and notated on a shrink wrapped card, along with the allen wrench and an extra of each type bolt and nut. The instructions are very clearly written, and laid out logically. In the reviews, there are misstatements or things that are simply not true made by those complaining of issues with assembly. 9 bolts are required for each chair seat (2 for each of 4 legs and 1 for the center back), and not 5 as mistakenly reported. It is hard to convince me that a hammer or mallet were useful to anyone other than they just like to “whack” things. Bolts are made to be screwed in and not hammered in. Someone even sawed off the back legs because the chair felt too pitched forward but I suspect the chair levelers which add about 1/4 inch in height were missing or fell out from the front chair legs. (Two of ours were loose in the box.) To assemble, ifc you lay the back of the chair down flat, you can set the seat bottom frame perpendicular, as shown on the instructions, and then you can line up the bolts. If you only screw the bolts in 50% of the way as instructed, you can even lift up the seat and see where each bolt goes into the back legs, and wiggle or maneuver a little while turning until it seats. It does help if there is a second person to help hold and steady, but it’s not absolutely necessary. I have put together many different types of furniture since buying my first piece of Ikea furniture 40 years ago, and these chairs were easy to put together. I also want you to know I am am 69 years old with severe arthritis, and I am a girl! I will say the wood is darker than pictured even though it is not an issue for me. Also, the way the upholstery is trimmed out underneath the chair bottom is not as nice as for a $300 dining room chair, and realistically, you cannot expect it to be for the price. These chairs were just what I was looking for. I am completely satisfied with this purchase and would not hesitate to recommend or buy again. Thank you!

Nicely made. Light weight. Very attractive. Easy to assemble. I bought these to surround a 4' round table. I'm very happy with them. (When putting these together, be sure to follow the instructions and tighten all bolts after setting the chairs upright and putting weight on them. This helps set the chair correctly so that it does not wobble, although the legs are adjustable.) I would purchase these again.

Just renovated my kitchen and have been searching for a table and chairs. I wanted something small but comfortable and not expensive. These chairs are perfect. The reason they are not getting the 5 stars I am concerned they will not hold up well to my active family. They are pretty, easy to put together, so far easy to spot clean ( just blot with a wet cloth), and are priced right.

I loved the look and style of these dining chairs online and when I received them they did not disappoint! I’ve never ordered any kind of furniture online, and was a bit hesitant. However, thanks to the many helpful reviews (especially the one from ‘dw in fl’) I took a chance, and I’m so glad that I did! They are not difficult to put together, the directions are pretty clear and they come with perfectly portioned-out tools, screws & washers, and they actually only have a few chair pieces to be assembled. However, please read the reviews on assembly, as they offer invaluable advice & tips on the best way to put them together. The chairs are exactly as pictured, except that the wood stain on the legs is a bit darker than pictured (which actually worked better for us). Overall we couldn’t be happier with our Colomy upholstered Parsons Chairs!

Quality and the price were PHENOMENAL!! We love the comfort and stability!

The chairs are easy to assemble color is nice exactly how looks on the picture and are comfortable.

So nice and easy to build and easy to maintain!

This would have been a 5 star review except for the message I just received. I originally ordered two boxes of 2 chairs, one box of chairs was in good condition, easy to put together. The other box, which did not show any damage, held two chairs, one of which had a jagged edge where one of the legs had been broken off. The broken piece was wrapped in foam and included! I immediately put the portion back exactly the way it was shipped and started the return process. My impression was that this merchandise was shipped from the manufacturer in this condition, as everything in the box appeared to be wrapped properly. I sent the box back correctly through UPS and was notified It was received and being inspected. The return was sent on June 6th, I have checked repeatedly and also talked to a customer service representative. I was told by the representative that a final date of July 9th, the refund would be given to me. I just check today and the message stated there was a problem and no refund given. I am a prime member and have never had anything like this happen before. Now another ago around with Customer Service. I am beyond upset. Update: I spoke with another C.S. representative today, 7/7. She was very thorough and professional. After checking the information I gave her, she was able to secure a refund that will be applied to my Amazon balance. Thanks to Customer Service for their quick response today. By the way, I had already ordered another set of 2 which I received. They were in perfect condition. The chairs are beautiful and much more expensive looking than I expected. Excellent buy.

These chairs are perfect for my table. They colour is beige but they are more of an ivory colour and not yellowish at all. Assembly takes some time but not hard. Everything lined up well. They are lighter weight but solid. I had been shopping for a while at various furniture stores for chairs. In comparison.. these chairs are much nicer and better quality than what I could get at this price point at the store. NO REGRETS!!

Surprisingly good quality. Assembly is a bit of work but makes them solid and comfortable

Was quite surprised at the strength of chairs & overall cushions. Take the time to level them properly thats the only thing you need to spend a little time on.

Absolutely love these chairs !

Sturdy and comfortable!
