Not the same as the showroom modelRaulMy 91 year old mother tested this chair in the showroom at the Paramus, NJ store and fell in love with it. She’s petite and found the chair to be a great fit for her. I made an online purchase and had the chair delivered but the chair we received was obviously built to different measurements for taller individuals. I went back to the store with a tape measure to compare the measurements of the floor model with the ones from the chair IKEA sent us and they were in fact different. I asked the department manager if it was possible to exchange the chair we received with the floor model but he said he couldn’t accommodate that request. I don’t know why. It would have made my elderly mom very happy and would have made a very happy customer out of me. Instead I’ll be returning the chair. I wish IKEA was more consistent with what they advertise versus what they offer. 2
The top / back part wobblesDavidIt’s not bad, legs are nice. The top half doesn’t snap on, it’s just held in with gravity. Wobbles3
We bought three!RubenWe love these chairs so much we bought three. They are very comfortable and have a headrest, which most side chairs do not. Highly recommended!5
Good and beautiful chairYormanGood and beautiful chair but little uncomfy for the neck if your TV is on top of the fireplace. High quality materials and excellent finishing.4
Love this armchair!Elizabeth I love everything about this armchair. It is comfortable, light, easy to assemble. Its wearing well and the color is very pleasing5
Beautiful and well madeElizabethThis chair only have one problem for me, it's designed for a taller people, so when I sit for long time it doesn't feel so comfortable, however it's beautifully made, the fabric is excellent4
Sturdy chairDeniseI'd give this a 4.5, if I could. This chair was easy to assemble and is both sturdy and comfortable (if a bit firm). However, the seams that allow the fabric to curve are uneven. On the floor model, they lay perfectly flat. On mine, some of the ends stick up in little points. It's not a deal-breaker, but it's unsightly. (General comment: Ikea, please don't be so quick to suggest people return things. Some of us, like me, live an hour from the nearest Ikea and would need help to load heavy items into our SUVs or, of we own only small cars, borrow a friend's car or truck again. Returning, then, is often a significant challenge, and many of us would rather keep an imperfect item than make that trek again.)4
Really Comfortable ChairEvieThe Oskarshamn chair is wonderful, it is the right height for someone under 5'4", the seat is the perfect depth and the greyish color blends with our grey/green couch. It also supports my neck and shoulders and we are really pleased with it. The springs in the seat make it very comfortable.5
Large ledge in backrestTinaI tested this chair in the store and loved how comfortable it was. I ordered one for delivery. The one I received today has a large ledge (5 inches difference) where the lower portion sticks out further than the top portion. It’s incredibly uncomfortable. The unit in the store was certainly not like this. 2
Gray chairLindaLove the chair easy to put together if it’s perfect where I wanted it to go love love love it comfortable5
favorite chairLizit's comfortable, beautiful color, nice texture.. i love it.. headrest is a little wobbly -- probably my mistake, but still ... if there were another color besides gray i would buy a second one.. footstool is essential5
Great KateThis chair is supportive and comfortable. The back is perfectly reclined with ample head support to relax and watch a movie. The cat also loves to curl up on it, so it’s a winner in our house. (The only minor negative is that after installing the top per directions, it has a little wiggle to it. We tried a few things to correct it without success)5
Nice chairDanielaI really like this chair. However, I gave only 3 stars because after putting it together i feel the quality does not match the high price tag. The material is ok, doesn’t seem very durable nor the bottom cushion. I buy items to last. I still have the first three drawer dresser i bought at IKEA in 1989. (I believe it was the last months of 1989). So I’m concerned about this piece’s durability. At $449, it should definitely have lasting power. I guess we will see. I do love the high rounded back, a little more back cushion would also improve this chair.3
Comfortable!TomokoI felt my muscles sigh into the chair when I first tried it. Very comfortable. Good back height. Easy to put together5
It’s just okLynnMy husband likes it. I don’t care for it. 2
Doesn’t alignJohnJust two of them arrived this morning. The back top/headrest parts do not align and sit on the bottom back. The 2 long screws with part number of 10085840 do not screw all the way down for the top part of the back to sit on the bottom part. That means the top part wobbles! We have checked and test drive these at IKEA before making the purchase decision, yet still a disappointment. If it still no good by tomorrow, they are return for sure. Not an cheap purchase for a silly issue like this2
Comfort zoneAnonymous reviewerLove this chair and everyone wants to sit in it - I got in the as is section for 200 best day ever. Looks fab in my small LR, makes the room have a design.
You feel enveloped & supported as you sit, its just as cool a chair you would find at design within reach. Only it’s a realistic price. 5
Gorgeous style and super comfortable too!JanineI love the modern curved styling.
Super roomy and comfortable yet firm padding.
Simple steps to put together5
Clean lines, comfortable chairKristinThis chair is sleek and comfortable. It was super easy to put together. Just know that once you put the top part on it's there forever! (not a problem, it is supposed to be there).5
Very comfortable Anonymous reviewerVery comfortable chair; easy assembly; well built.5
