These chairs are amazing. Every time I sit in one I feel like a World War 2 fighter pilot. Except this cockpit is incredibly comfortable. Friends comment on how striking the chairs are. They bring any room a whole new feel.
As much as I wanted to love this chair I just couldn't for a few reasons: 1. It is really really small compared the designer version. I opened the box and was like "ummm, is this for a kid?" They should show a picture of someone sitting in it because I am 5' 10" and the seat back only reaches the middle/bottom of my back. 2. Leather is super stiff. Seems like it is ok quality leather. Might be a good accent piece, but not something you will relax in to watch a movie. I couldn't find a comfortable way to sit in it. 3. The metal siding is ver very thin. You could take one finger and dent it with a soft push. The metal isn't even cut evenly on the inside below the arm. 4. It ships damaged, for EVERYONE! It was packaged ok, but beneath the bubble wrap the chair was stick scratched everywhere. Some may say it adds character, but you cannot remove the scratches if you wanted to. It wasn't just one spot either. The entire exterior metal had scratches all over the place. If you're willing to pay $600 for a damaged, uncomfortable, smaller than expected chair that looks cool, then go for it. Just realize that all these reviews are SPOT ON! This chair is a knock-off from China, but you get less than what you pay for.
**************************, this Accelerator chair will surely please you if this what you are looking for. Edgy, with a combined vintage-modern twist, the aviator chair sits low and compact like you are in a sportscar or cockpit of a plane. I'm short and love the feeling of touching the ground with my feet. I have read it is a perfect chair for taller people as well. Certainly different, I plan to turn a sitting room/office into a travel room with large framed photographs of our pets, travels, and people who mean the most to us with accents of cowhide pillows, fabrics and a leather bench with steel legs I found on Overstock to match. It is comfortable to me but perhaps less comfy for someone really large..think sportscar seat and that is the size of it. Very attractive and attention seeking, it draws your attention to it!
Looks just as good as the competitor's chair which sells for much more. However, this chair is slightly less comfortable than the competition, but not uncomfortable. Get the Ottoman too, it helps with long periods of sitting, looks good with the chair and is priced well.
I have been coveting these chairs in restoration hardware since they came out. We just moved and needed living room furniture. Could not BELIEVE these chairs were on here! Somebody reviewed that they were screws and not rivets, lower backs than restoration hardware, etc... We didn't find that to be the case. They are screws in restoration hardware, too. These chairs just aren't leather nor do they pretend to be. We bought two and love them. Sit in the ones in restoration hardware and you are getting a $500 version of them. Simple. The screws stick out a bit, so be careful. WE didn't buy the ottomans but bought others with chrome and brown leather-- too matchy matchy to do the whole thing, we thought. Enjoy!
This chair is great because it is comfortable to sit on just like the one from Restoration Hardware for a third of the price. It was not as heavy as I thought it would be so moving the chair around is not difficult. It is also a great conversation piece as it is a very unique chair. The ordering process through overstock.com was a great. Customer service was excellent & they delivered in great timing. I would recommend this chair & recommend ordering from overstock.com. Thank you!
After desiring this chair at a high end store for the longest time, my wife directed me here to see a similar item. I was very impressed with how close it was in material and craftsmanship. For the price and quality it is a great buy for this specially niched item.
The quality of the metal exterior is not very good. I understood from other reviews that the metal came with scratches, mine did too but it adds to the look in a positive way. What I don't like about this exterior is that there are pieces that are sharp and I can just see someones close getting snagged. Lucky for me I'm just using the piece as an accent chair so hopefully nobody gets injured! The leather is nice. It is a low chair that sits you back at a pretty deep angle. It is an eye catching chair and very unique. Overall I love it and am very happy with my product and even happier that it is so similar to Restoration Hardware's piece for a fraction of the price.
So most people who coveted a similar chair from Restoration Hardware will be happy to know that this chair for the price comes as close as your gonna get for a designer piece! The aluminum is a bit thinner but mines arrived in perfect condition! My son loves it!!! He can't stop grinning!!!!! Everyone who comes to our home and sees the chair, love it! Another excellent buy for Overstock! Yeah for me!
I was very very happy with the product - for the cost it was a great value. Anyone familiar RH knows how unique this piece is and I was shocked to see Overstock carry it. All the reviews I read were spot on - the chairs back is very short, so some one tall would not feel they had support. But everyone who has seen the chair in its new spot in my home has made comments on how cool it looks. I kinda wish I bought 2.
