Sure Fit Knit Stretch Velvet Wing Chair Cover

The cover didn't fit well over my wigback and bunched up in places; it could have been passable if you didn't look closely or it wasn't a hair that was used. Also, because I took it out of the packaging in order to try its fit, the return I received was poor. etuned it in original cellophane and box, but only received 50% from Overstock for what I paid for it. Very very disappointing.

• How did the color on site compare with the actual product? Good
• Please tell us about the quality of the product. Didn't fit well over the chair; wasn't practical for everyday use

I am usually uncomfortable with slipcovers because they tend to look messy. These stretch perfectly even over a somewhat unusually shaped wingback chair, and DO NOT slip around at all. The velvet is very comfortable in texture. Looks like the chair was reupholstered. Super easy to place as well.

• Did the color match the color displayed onsite? yes
• How is the quality of the product? excellent
• Did the description onsite accurately describe the product? yes

A few years back I sewed a slipcover for my custom wing chair that generations of kitties had used as a scratching post. The slipcover looked great- like it was re-upholstered - I was so proud. That is until the kitties saw past the slipcover disguise and used it as the scratching post they knew it really was. Although it then spent many years in the garage, I refused to part with my chair and one day spent spent hours snipping the original upholstery threads so I could bring it back into the house and into my bedroom. All was okay, until my current generation of kitty saw the potential in that chair. It again became a dismal, unbearable sight. As I just wasn't willing to make another cover, the only option was ready made. After reading the reviews for this cover, I felt comfortable that it would look like the photo and I could work with it. When I got it out of the package I was very impressed by the material. Not at all like most stretch covers-it was really "velvety". My chair has a box cushion, so I decided to stuff the T parts with batting. After tucking and stretching (using T pins to secure in a few places) and the velcro straps around the legs (a wonderful idea), the chair looks almost upholstered. It's as beautiful as the photo! I use the chair every day and very seldom do I have to reposition the cover. The sides and back sections tuck into the seat crevices very well and the material over the seat cushion always looks smooth. As a bonus, my kitty hasn't even bothered the chair since I put on the cover- back to using his own scratcher. Unfortunately, as much as I love that rich dark brown color, I knew that the lint and cat hair would be a problem. It was, until I tried out the turbo brush that came with my new upstairs vacuum. Ahhh ... The perfect solution for the perfect slipcover.

Gorgeous, rich color. Love the fabric. Love the stretch. Definitely recommend.
