Great look for the price!
 from Las Cruces, NM,  May 24, 2011
VERIFIED PURCHASE

These chairs are great, I got a total of 4 for our eating area, plus 2 different red chairs. They look great, and are super comfortable. Several people commented on the assembly of the chairs- it isn't that bad, I put them together while my husband was out. It took about 2 hours, since I was by myself. The chairs do not come with instructions but pretty easy to figure out. If you are having problems with the holes lining up exactly, try only tightening the screws slightly until you have them all in place, making lining up easier, and then fully tighten once all are in place.

Awesome repros!
 from Penn.,  Jul 11, 2011

I have been a fan of Eames design for many years, but unfortunately the pieces are out of my budget. So when I saw these repros on Overstock for such a low price, I had to jump on the chance. I am quite impressed by the look and feel of these repros -- they really seem like the real deal. Well made with exacting constuction and attention to details, I think they would fool most Eames aficionados. For the price, this is a great way to get the vibe of a modern classic.

Great Modern Chairs
 from San Francisco, CA,  Nov 15, 2010
VERIFIED PURCHASE

These are a reasonable facsimile of the Eames Eiffel Chair. I was almost scared away by how inexpensive they are, but it's a faithful knockoff. The chairs are slightly flexible plastic and have a matte finish. You'll find stiffer, fiberglass versions out there as well and I guess it's a matter of personal preference. Assembly was very easy. It's true that it takes a little work to line up the base/legs with the pre-drilled holes in the seat, but because the legs are angled you can flex them from the very end and create plenty of leverage without using a lot of force. The only really cheap part are the plastic disks that sit on the very ends of the legs, against the floor. It ships with extras, presumably because they will break off, pop off etc over time. Overall highly recommended.

Assembly Instructions
 from Seattle, WA,  May 25, 2013
VERIFIED PURCHASE

There were a few confusing parts about assembling these chairs and I was unable to find any instructions online so I thought I'd post some tips. - There were felt stickers covering the screw holes under the seat of the chairs. I'm not sure if these were actually intended for anything specific but I peeled them off and stuck them to the bottom of each black plastic chair leg cap to protect my floor. - One of the chairs had a few drops of hardened plastic obscuring two of the screwholes. This made it impossible to get the screw in correctly so I used a razor blade to scrape away the excess plastic. - In order to easily line up the holes of the legs and seat, I placed the chair seat upside on the edge of my couch. This allowed me to easily see how to line up the holes. - For each chair leg, there is a bolt, a washer and a lock washer. I first put the lock washer on the bolt followed by the washer and then put the bolt through the hole in the legs and finally into the screw hole in the base of the chair. You'll most likely have to pry on the legs a little to get all the holes lined up. I recommend hand tightening them all before using the allen to finish them.

Good Chairs; a little Tippy for Toddlers
 from San Luis Obispo, CA,  May 2, 2013
VERIFIED PURCHASE

These dining chairs suit our purpose just fine. We purchased six (three sets of two), and will purchase one more set once we move into our new space and have a larger dining table. The poly seats do have flex (as opposed to similarly styled rigid fiberglass classics) which is both a good and a bad thing. It is good in that it makes them more comfortable when you are sitting in them. It is bad in that our toddler grabs the back to try to pull herself into the chair and the flex throws her off balance--but she is getting better at it already. By three, she should master it. Also, because the base is set into a narrower mount than the wood style ones we've looked at, they can tip, say, when a toddler is climbing into one. So, for now, we'll just lift her in and out. Other than those cautions, they are great little chairs with good looks at an inexpensive price. They are easy to clean, and the white plastic hasn't stained at all in spite of having tomato sauce and red wine sit on them for varying periods of time (even after a couple of days), which kind of surprised me a bit. They are super comfortable and definitely lend themselves to long, lingering meals with friends and family, which was important to us. So a win, win so far. Time will tell how they hold up, but if they break at least they are inexpensively replaced--important details with a little one using them as props for her imaginitive play. On an assembly note: one of our sets came with parts missing. But another came with double sets of the parts missing from the other, so it worked out for us. There were two hiccups in the assembly: one was trying to separate the two wire bases that were somewhat wedged together (hubby strongarmed that one) and the other was getting everything to line up in order to screw in the bolts. Because they are designed to have some tension in the frames, you have to screw a little bit of each one at a time (think tire changing--best done in an X pattern) to ease the process as much as possible. The black floor pad things were a bit uneven, but we just put the felt pads from the packaging on them with a little dab of glue and now they are more even and slide nicely on the floor.

nice eames knock off
 from atlanta, ga,  Apr 30, 2013
VERIFIED PURCHASE

these look just like the other white wire chairs sold here on overstock, however the hardware is different and its missing the spacers. if i could have ordered 2 more of the other white wire chairs that would have been my preference. these chairs are good looking but they do tip over very easy, especially if you have children getting up and down from them.

the best chair ever. period.
 from salt lake city,  Apr 1, 2013
VERIFIED PURCHASE

these chairs are seriously one of the best things we have ever purchased for the home furnishings. we purchased six for a banging deal. they're durable like a tank, they look stunning (as they should, considering they're a major designer rip-off), the price is awesome, they're easy to keep clean, and they're crazy comfortable...they're pretty much everything you'd want to get from a chair. buy these now. your bottom (and heart) will thank you. :)

Exceeded my expectations!
 from San Mateo, CA,  Jul 9, 2012
VERIFIED PURCHASE

After much hesitation I went ahead and bought 4 of these chairs. One of the customers who wrote a reviews was correct in that once you opened the boxes there was a smell of moth balls; however, the smell went away in a few hours. Also, assembly took some time, but it wasn't all that difficult. Overall I am very please at the way these chairs turned out once assembled. They fit perfecty around my round table and the seat height was fine. They look really close to the much more expensive Eames chairs and I am very happy that we bought these reproductions instead b/c we saved a lot of money.

not great
 from Los Angeles, CA,  Jan 10, 2012
VERIFIED PURCHASE

The plastic of the chair is very cheap. I ended up getting four for my dining table based on the positive reviews. I'm surprised that it got such uniformly high reviews. When I received it, there were some minor dents on one of the chairs and a big scratch on another of the chairs. I thought about returning them, but not sure whether I'd do any better with another brand. The plastic material will dirty easily. Just from assembling, lots of areas got dirty and did not come off until I scrubbed. They were NOT easy to assemble. Two were okay and I assembled by myself, but the other two had holes that did not match up and required two people to pull and tug with all of our strength to match up the final hole for screwing in. The only positive is that they look good from far away and they are comfortable to sit in.

such a beautiful modern chair
 from Atlanta, GA,  May 2, 2011

I have been looking around for this modern chair since I saw it on ***. It will fit my kitchen dining area so well! It is hard to find it around my area, where there is almost zero affordable modern furniture stores. I am very glad I found it online and the cost is very much within what I was expecting to spend. I ordered one set just to make sure it will work for me first, and I love them! Ordering more for sure!

Exactly what I wanted!
 from Ames, IA,  Aug 12, 2009
VERIFIED PURCHASE

These chairs are great Eames imitations that cost a lot less. When assembling, if you don't tighten any of the bolts completely until they're all in, the leg mounting part ends up being just fine. Also, the manufacturer seems to have fixed the missing-foot problem - all three of my pairs of chairs came with four extra feet each! Very comfortable and beautiful once they're assembled. I'm so happy with these chairs!

So in Love
 from Saint Louis, MO,  Jul 8, 2013
VERIFIED PURCHASE

I bought four of these chairs (2 sets) a couple of months ago, and am totally happy with my decision to purchase them. They look exactly as I expected based on the photo and other reviews. The white molded plastic is slightly flexible, and the base is a weighty metal that feels exceptionally durable. The chairs were easy to put together as well, in spite of the fact that the manufacturer doesn't include any instructions (would have been nice, but we figured it out). The ONLY reason I am giving them four stars instead of five is the issue that some others have mentioned with the feet. Both boxes we received were short one foot, so we had to call Overstock and request that they send replacements. They were happy to send us extras, and they arrived by mail within about 7-10 days. The willingness of the company to correct any errors meant a lot, and I would buy from them again. The feet are the cheapest looking part of the chair, and I hope they'll last, because I expect to have these at my kitchen table for a long time. They are the closest thing I'll be able to get to the real Eames for the foreseeable future, and are very comfortable to sit in. I smile every time I walk into my kitchen and see them.

Positive

The chairs were easy to put together which worried me after the other reviews that I had read. Evidently someone does not know how to use an allen wrench. One of the black feet for the base was missing. I contacted Overstock and they had it out to my house right a way. Great set of chairs that compliment our retro table.

Chairs are ok if you receive all the pieces
 from Saint Louis, MO,  May 5, 2013
VERIFIED PURCHASE

I recently ordered 4 chairs for my new apt. I liked the design of these chairs, and they are not expensive. I received well the chairs, except that 1 foot cap was missing for 1 chair. After contacting the customer service, they were not willing to send me the missing piece, for the reason that it was not explicitly listed in the item description on the website. In fact, the item description do not list anything except that there is 2 chairs in the box! Moreover the picture associated with the item description show clearly that the black foot caps are part of the chairs. Without the foot cap, the chair is not usable as it is because the foot of the chair is an iron point (not good for the floor). The foot cap is a cheap piece, so I will look into stores to buy it myself, but what a bad experience with customer service! Otherwise, the chairs looks great, they are comfy, and good looking. The material is not the best but it is ok. I think the assembly design could have been ameliorated, because the hole on the seats do not match with the holes of the metallic legs, so you have to put a lot of force to screw everything together.

great looking + comfortable + great price = happy
 from Los Angeles,  Apr 25, 2013
VERIFIED PURCHASE

Got a pair of these along with a pair of the "armed" style for our dining room chairs. Really recommend this pairing if getting these for that purpose. That being said, I use one of them now to replace a vintage, highly-comfortable desk chair we had - so much more comfortable! If you're looking for a great knock-off for a great price, look now further. These are a lot cheaper than knock-offs people are trying to sell on Craigslist!

Great knockoffs
 from Oakland, Ca,  Apr 23, 2013
VERIFIED PURCHASE

Nice chairs. Takes a little longer than expected to align and attach the metal legs (first three holes line up, the fourth is a bit off). It does not come with instructions, so you need to know or figure out the sequence for the washers, lock washer and bolts. The plastic feet that attach to the bottoms of the legs are not very secure and of poor quality.

  • How did the color on site compare with the actual product? As shown
  • Please tell us about the quality of the product. Good quality. Had to return a set because the metal legs created a deep gauge in the plastic chair due to handling/shipping (could use better packaging).
