Boss Captain’s Chair In Black Vinyl

We love these chairs! The quality of the material and craftmanship of the chairs is top notch. They assembled quickly and easily. They really hit the mark on comfort and sturdiness. They are constructed in such a way that you don't have to consider the stability of what you are about to sit down in. The color of the wood paired with the color of the cushions give off a very classy feel. The brass upholstery pins add a classy finishing touch to the look of the chair I appreciate the size of the chair, too. They are big enough to be comfortable, but compact enough to fit in smaller areas. We initially purchased only one of these chairs, but after seeing how they looked, how well they were constructed and the price of the chair, we purchased a second one. I would recommend these in a heartbeat.

Let's be honest - you are looking at this chair because it's cheap and somehow doesn't look like a metal folding chair from the thrift store. Well you are in luck; this chair is great! It's sturdy (my weight exceeds the recommended weight, but not a hitch or a moan!), it looks exactly like the picture, it is easy to assemble (if you do not get the front and back rails mixed up, under the seat!). The cushion is just a huge spring underneath the vinyl exterior, but it works pretty well...it may not be the most comfortable of chairs, but it works ok...just not super-long periods of sitting (a small pillow-like mat would be a welcome addition). It is virtually noiseless when being moved across my hardwood floor, which is amazing considering nothing else is...it does not creak in the slightest and feels super solid, even when you move around in the chair. It has a really good width, so you can spread out a bit (not a discomfort to the fellas out there, if you know what I mean). The one thing I will say is to maybe have some wood glue or maybe liquid nails, as there are a few places that use dowels to hold space...and gluing those places made mine seem a bit more sturdy, but maybe that is in my imagination. A great chair, a great price, super-fast shipping, what more could you want?

Mostly recommended. In this review, I am going to mostly help you understand our rating and share important helpful details. We love the looks of this chair but don't believe it was the best value for the money. The padding is nice and thick, feels decent to sit on. The design of the padding does cause a bit of an uncomfortable bubble in the front of the seat and forces to you lean back (not a lot, but is certainly noticeable). You will need a Phillips (PH2) screwdriver, which was not included. For us, we needed to put a small wrench on the screwdriver as some of the seat-screws had bad threads after half-way in. Yes, there is blue thread-lock on them (this is a good thing as it helps keep screws from working loose), but became excessively difficult to turn and still had a ways to go. We checked a couple other seat screws and noticed they were worn. Did not appear to have been used but rather maybe a couple of odd-balls from factory is all. Assembly did not seem overly difficult at first. The instructions are decent but not perfect. For example of a positive, it is suggested to leave the screws which hold the legs in place 'loose' until you can adjust the seat for mounting. This works well, in general. The main issue is that the front center seat attachment was misaligned by over a quarter inch - there is no way to compensate for the is alignment issue. So, we are missing a solid mount in the front. The back of the seat attachment process is interesting and there is no good way to get it really tight. The cost of tightening the screw in the legs (for the seat back) is that you are unable to align it when flipping the chair over to then install screws into the underside of the arms. Either it won't be tight enough or you won't be able to fully install. The chair came with four rubber feet that have a threaded bolt attached to the feet. You can just simply screw those down by hand. Two were installed and two we had to hunt for in the box (but they were there). There chair was nicely packed. This is very good because the packaging was in very poor health but the chair was literally OK, no issues. Once we were able to stand the chair up right and sit in it, it does have a solid feel to it. Not sure how long it might hold up to folks moving around in it (normal usage), but we are happy enough and do need to get a matching chair. Our rating for sturdiness lost 1 star for unable to secure center seat mount and a 2nd star due to seat back and arm combo, could have a better mounting system. If this sounds like something you are looking for then it may also be right for you. We like it, will keep it, are getting another, but for the cost , feel it could have been just a bit better.

Built well, easy to assemble if you follow directions (video). Surprising quality and sturdy. They are comfortable enough for several hours of sitting.

Did not have high expectations for this chair, given the fairly low price so, in that sense, I was not disappointed. It looks nice and,I hope, will hold up. However, for many years I made..... assembled, finished, etc, kit furniture and clocks so I have some experience. Also have bought a number of furniture items from IKEA. Having said that, though there were not many pieces to assemble with this chair, assembly was NOT easy. It was difficult to properly line up parts, especially the back/arm assembly to the seat. The whole thing is held together with screws as opposed to dowels and locking devices. Also, the chair arms come with screws already installed LOOSELY. The instructions are not clear as to whether the loose screws here (it says all other screws must be securely tightened) must be tightened BEFORE fastening the arms. Time will tell if it stands up. If you plan to make high use of the chairs, look elsewhere.

I have several chairs in my office and waiting room. They look great and are easy to clean. These chairs do require assembling and that can be tricky at first, but worth the cost. I recommend this product.

The frame is not adequately solid, and the chair is really a 'lounge chair' type chair, in that, once seated, you are slumped back... I think a lot of people who find this style of chair of interest probably want a more active, upright form of sitting, as I did. Also, the cushions are really large, soft, uncomfortable padding, rather than a reasonable, flatter and firmer type of padding. Just totally cheap, cheesy and nonfunctional. Look elsewhere, this is 'joke' trash.

Looks very exquisite and very comfortable.

It offers no back support for my handicapped wife. Boss offers a much better back support option in their line of products. Returning it has been a nightmare and the chair has been waiting to be returned for weeks. Boss takes this very lightly

J’ai reçu la chaise sans vis donc incapable d’assembler la chaise

I feel like million bucks!
