The aim was to create a comfortable and high quality chair that was a real bargain. For example, Ulf and his colleagues decided to put it in a flat pack. “It has made it possible to have a lower price and reduce emissions during transportation, explains Ulf. The flat pack will also make bringing home STRANDMON a whole lot easier, especially for everyone who doesn’t have a car that can fit a pre-assembled wing chair.

Great buy its so comfy even the grand kids love it...TerryDelighted with my new chair. Only trouble is my is not too happy at how easy I drop off while sitting in it. Great value too.

Arm ChairGerardI like the colour bottle green and the chair is very affordable & very comfortable
Great purchase!RoisinGood quality, straight forward to assemble and very comfortable. Also an excellent delivery service.
Excellent KiaranEverything was perfect as usual
Today I purchased and assembled the chair and had quite a tough job to assemble it. However, the appearance was a little odd, it seemed to be leaning back too far and was not very comfortable to sit in and have an animated conversation. The reclining position was too extreme. It also looked odd, especially the side view which was the way the chair is seen when entering the room. My solution? I disobeyed the assembly instructions. I removed the legs an in direct contravention of the assembly instructions I swapped the front legs with the back legs. The instructions clearly show that the longer legs should be on the front. With shorter legs in the front the chair is transformed, the ugly duckling becomes a swan and the uncomfortable slouched seating posture becomes an elegant repose.RichardOverall I am happy with the product.
The fabric, we chose the beige corduroy effect fabric, has lovely feel to it and seems quite durable. It is no work of art, but for the money, it is lovely, honest, comfortable little chair.
We now have 4 ofJoyceWe now have 4 of these spread through out the house . So comfortable and look so well
Would recommend always buying the footstools too for added comfort

Story
From vintage sitting to modern life
Do you sometimes get a little nostalgic? We do. That’s why we created STRANDMON wing chair. Its design is inspired by an IKEA chair from the 50’s called MK – a favourite of the IKEA founder, Ingvar Kamprad. It was even on the cover of our first catalogue. But how could it be refreshed and adapted to today’s demands? Well, we found a few ways…
Like the quality. Back in the 50’s, most people used chairs just to sit in. Nowadays, we curl up in our chairs, drape our legs over armrests and eat where we sit. We put higher demands on our furniture. Our product developer Ulf Engström explains what STRANDMON has to put up with. “It’s tested to make sure it can take a person that sits and gets up at least 50,000 times. That’s the same as sitting and getting up once a day for 136 years.”
Now in bits and pieces
Some things never change
The wing chair perhaps had its golden era long ago, but who knows, it might be considered a must-have in people's homes once again. “People have changed the way they live since the 50's, but the need for affordable quality furniture is still the same. I think that is one of the reasons to why STRANDMON is so popular,” says Ulf. The flat pack and the lower price, together with new colours and patterns, will definitely make it easier for more people to find the right spot for STRANDMON in their home. And – of course – experience some well-deserved comfort.
Material
What is cotton?
Cotton is one of the world's most appreciated and used natural fibres. Textiles in cotton are soft, hardwearing and can be washed at high temperatures. They are also good at breathing and absorbing moisture – making them pleasant to wear close to the body. Today at IKEA we use more and more recycled cotton and strive to make sure that all the new cotton we use has been grown and produced with less and less amounts of pesticides, fertilisers and water.
