Weak LegsBenI purchased this chair a few years ago and the rear right leg has never been solid. The fastener in the frame of the chair is all messed up and can't be repaired. I wonder if I can return it?
Solid and Comfortable Chair – One Year LaterAlexBought the Strandmon exactly one year ago and am pleased. Had researched a replacement chair for my failing 35 year old leather recliner chair. Yes, this is certainly not the same as what I had, does not recline, nor is it leather, but am content with this as a replacement. Very comfortable and solid. Am 6' male. The set up was not a hassle. Highly recommend. Am on the verge now of buying the matching footstool, that's what brought me back here and thought I may as well share my experience.
Recurring durability issuesAbdullahI’ve purchased these twice because I initially liked the comfort, but both times the same issue appeared after a few years of normal daily use. In each case, the support beneath the seat changed significantly. One chair developed a clear loss of support in the sitting area, which seemed related to the internal frame no longer holding its shape. The other developed uneven support where the springs under the cushion no longer functioned properly.
What concerns me is that these weren’t surface-level “wear and tear” problems; the changes felt structural. Both times I submitted a warranty claim, it was categorized as “general wear” and not covered. The warranty experience was very disappointing. From what I’ve seen, this is not a chair built for long-term daily use, and it may only hold up reliably for very light individuals or occasional seating.
ComfyBruceLove the comfort of this chair.
Nice looking chair, poor fitting parts, assembly was terrible.MarkThe bolt holes/attachment points that attach the side arms did align, resulting in difficulty assembling, non-symmetrical seams, and a few unsightly gaps. The buttons are also attached poorly (they are not stitched, just held on by elasticized strong), so two of them hang out slightly, making it look a bit shoddy. Overall it’s quite comfortable, and it looks decent in low light or at a passing glance; but for an experienced woodworker, assembly was extremely frustrating, and because I know it’s there, I see the parts where the chair doesn’t align properly; makes it look a bit like a cheap Walmart purchase. I could send back, but being 400 km from the nearest store makes that a pain. At some point I may redrill the holes for a better fit - but that shouldn’t be necessary for a product at this price point. This is the second IKEA purchase within a month with poorly aligned pieces.
Comfort PatriciaFirm but comfortable chair
Nice but some concernsPamHave had the chair for about 2 weeks. Like it but the buttons are already starting to pull and fall off. I just wish they weren’t there. They looked nice at first but now look sloppy. Will have to either put a blanket over the buttons or figure out a way to sew them back on- it’s too new to already look old.
quality issue with chair legMegWe purchased this chair and it’s breaking where back leg it’s. Foundation is collapsing after minimal use. It has 10 year warranty so I’ll have to return to store to seek assistance. Disappointed with quality..,
Very comfortable NancyIt was very easy to assemble and comfortable

Comfy ChairHaliBought two gray chairs, they are comfortable, but one is smaller than the other. I am a petite person, and I wish the chair was a little wider at the back. Sometimes, I fall to sleep on the chair and wish the chair had a neck support. I bought the gray colour, but wish a white colour had been available. I have carpet, so I prefer the floor guards to be plastic rather than felt.
Comfortable and elegant appearanceOscarI and my family love the chairs (we bought 2) so much!
StrandmonKatherineBeautiful chair! Very comfortable. Easy to assemble. Lining up a couple of the bolts takes some patience. The box it comes in is a little heavy and is tricky to move alone. That being said, anyone with a little grit and determination and muscle can move it. I highly recommend it to beautify any space.

Nice comfy chair. Would haveMohamedNice comfy chair. Would have been nice if it had some patterns instead of being plain grey.
Good chair at a good price pointKarlLike the Poang chairs from Ikea, this is a good chair too. For quality, price and comfort, you really can't beat it.
