Elvin Leather Recliner & Ottoman

We are very happy with everything about this chair. It’s very comfortable and supportive. It’s built sturdy. Chair and ottoman are surprisingly heavy. The leather is rich looking and the style fits our mid-century modern style. It’s exactly the style and comfort we were hoping for!

WOW! We just received our new chair and ottoman in Saddle Brown. It arrived well packaged in two boxes with assembly instructions (which you really didn’t need to read). The chair needed to have the headrest attached (just pops in like a car head rest) and the black metal swivel base attached with four bolts with wrench include. The ottoman only needed the black metal base attached with 4 Allen screws (Allen wrench included). A few noteworthy things: the base of the chair doesn’t have an adjustable height - which is fine. The swivel is quality in that it swivels back to its forward position when you swivel the chair to the side and get up. The mechanism to recline is a manual lever that works smoothly and easily. The headrest lifts up and adjusts height very easily. A very tall person and a shorter woman seem to be fine with the same lower height. The black metal bases on both chair and ottoman are HEAVY, you feel secure and not tippy in the chair. On the other hand it takes some effort to move the entire chair and/or ottoman. We always buy leather furniture and are used to high quality top grain leather and this chair stands up to that standard. The walnut wood sides and base has a handsome grain and is well made as well. Highly recommend and Happily surprised to find this gem at a reasonable price.

UPDATE: After a couple of days, we are noticing a strong chemical smell on the chair. The smell is stronger near the headrest - may be from the foam somehow. We hope it dissipates soon. We’re a bit worried….

UPDATE: After several days, the chemical odor from the inner foam which leaks out from the headrest holes is dissipating. Time will continue to improve the problem.
