Armen Living Panda Dining Chair, Single, Black Faux Leather/Walnut

I ordered this one chair last week to try it out and insure we loved it bf buying a set for a new mid century style dining table we've ordered from an online furniture store. We've been looking for a set of chairs that look pretty, are comfortable, and have the mid century vibe. It came in today and arrived in a light foam cover, which protected the wood back of the already assembled seat, and the legs, which are metal and coated in metal paint that matches the back, so they coordinate w/the back, but are not tacky looking. They were boxed in a well sealed triangular box, which helped it not move around a lot in transit, I guess, since there is not a single blemish on the chair! In fact, I love this chair! It took me ten minutes to screw the separately boxed legs on and they are well tagged as either front or back legs. The holes are pre-drilled on the seat and match perfectly w/the legs. the tiny screw driver is included since you need one of those 6 sided drivers to assemble. Best of all, they are very, very comfortable! The seat is well padded and the faux leather is very soft. We've sat in it for about an hour and so far, it holds up to my 200# husband comfortably. So, I'm ordering three more today! As a side note, though, although these look sturdy and are very comfortable, the backs are NOT solid wood. The backs are plywood and stained a walnut brown, though it shows more reddish brown than dark brown. The staining is beautiful, though and it looks good quality. My table will be solid dark walnut, and since the trend is not matchy, matchy, I'm hoping they blend in w/o trying to match them to the table.. The price point is very affordable, much less than some of the same style chairs from the popular mid century modern furniture stores online and walk ins.; so these chairs may only hold up a few years, since they don't cost $500+/piece. But we only use our dining room a few times a year since we have a kitchen table we use daily. But I can always replace them a few years down the line if they don't last since the price is very reasonable. I'll submit photos when I get the others and my table.

Gorgeous chairs! Sturdy and easy to put together.

We bought this chair to replace a more sculpted Humanscale desk chair. The advantage of this chair is that it has a completely flat bottom cushion which may be more comfortable for some people when sitting for longer periods of time. The chair has a walnut-colored veneer which has a high quality appearance even though the base wood is plywood. I recommend taking care not to bang the chair into hard surfaces or it will likely dent/chip the wood veneer. The fabric seat, back, and sides are light gray fabric with a good texture. The legs are metal with a wood-like finish and screw into the bottom of the seat with three screws each. The legs have plastic tips to prevent scratching the floor but I added a half-inch diameter furniture pad to each leg so that it slides easily on our hardwood floors. Overall, the chair looks much more expensive than it is and fits the mid-century style perfectly. ASSEMBLY NOTE: Some reviewers have complained that their chair rocked back and forth on the floor after assembly. It is important to note that there are two different size legs for the front and back --they are clearly marked on the base to show you where each is to be positioned. The legs look identical but they are not (they have different lengths/angles). My chair sits perfectly flat on the floor without any wobble and so I suspect that wobbly chairs were not assembled with the legs in the right position.

This chair was insanely easy to assemble, so I do appreciate that! However some of the hardware is slightly warped where the leather is attached underneath it, which caused the legs to attach unevenly. It does lean/wobble slightly. I’m sure there’s a DIY solution to this, but on a carpeted surface is it not noticeable. Overall I really love the look of this chair. It’s has a great mid-century modern look and is very comfortable. This is a decent value. Exactly what I needed for the office space in my bedroom. Ps, don’t mind the unfinished floor; we’re renovating!

I'm a 6' tall 210lb man. This chair is extremely sturdy and easy to assemble. It is a little wide which is PERFECT! I have slight wiggle room around me. The look is sleek and just as pictured. Love this chair!

I am very disappointed these didn't work out, because I think they're very attractive looking. I had no problems with assembly, and they seem sturdy enough. However, they are simply not designed to be comfortable. The back is reclined enough that it's awkward to sit at the dining table and try to eat. If you sit upright, there's no back support. Also, because of the gap between the seat and the back, if you scoot back to try to get your back on the chair back, your butt kind of falls off the back of the seat, and you end up trying to sit with your butt hanging off the back of the chair. These chairs are so close to being really nice, but we ended up squirming around trying to find a comfortable way to sit. Returned.

Easy to assemble but wobbly, no matter how you adjust the screws. I tried to use washers to get the legs to the right length but because of the construction, it still isn't perfect. Luckily I have it on carpet so it's less noticeable, but this would drive me nuts on hardwood. Seems I'm not the only reviewer with this issue. That said, it is a really nice looking chair. It's comfortable enough for office use too, which is what I'm using it for. 8 hours a day sitting in it and feels fine.

I love the style of this chair and many similar ones run much more expensive. They came in a timely manner and were very easy to assemble. They are not wobbly if you adjust the screws, which it specifically says to do in the instructions. I ordered the light grey version and they look and feel very high quality. I have read reviews that the leather may not come as nice. Overall I highly recommend these chairs for an office, a little seating area, or dining. They are gorgeous.
