Lexington Modern Classic Plywood Lounge Chair & Ottoman with Palisander Base & Black Leather Uphostery

I was very skeptical, I admit. But I was pleasantly surprised, and I can't find a single flaw.

The leather is very, very nice. The wood is gorgeous. The base is solid. The design, well, there's a reason why this is a "classic" design, right? This chair is ultra comfortable. I have compared all the close-up photos of the original chair from its manufacturer's website and I cannot distinguish my chair from the original designer (which costs about 9x more).

I was nervous due to the lack of reviews, so I read all the feedback for Lexginton Modern and there are several positive comments from people who ordered this chair. One person's comment indicated it wasn't very reclined, but I think they put the base on backwards (an easy mistake).

The packing job was great. I was a bit concerned when the box arrived with some punctures and tears, but the contents were packed with love -- and by love I mean bubble-wrap, and lots of it. I was also a little concerned about the shipping cost, but the care and speed (it arrived in four business days) made me feel it was justified. There were no assembly instructions, but it took four screws with an allen wrench (included) to put the chair on the base, and the ottoman drops into its base. Assembly took about twenty minutes, including packing clean-up.

My hat is off to Lexington Modern for making a classic work of modern furniture art available at a price I can justify, and without compromising on quality, workmanship, packing.
