Reviews

Good chairAsahiI dont have a ton of experience with offer chairs & therefore am still a little ambivalent about this one -that is why I rated 4 stars. Im 5' 1", 125 lbs. Bought this for my wfh desk. I have had back problems and sit with legs folded on the chair. I don't have collapsed posture when Im sitting. Im always upright; not leaning forward or leaning back unless Im reading a lot of text on screen or watching a 4+ min video. I do take breaks every hour to stretch out or move around for 5mins. That said, I use this chair for many hours if need be w/o it hurting my back. The cushioning is comfortable for my tailbone and doesnt create any localized pressure. I like the esthetic. The wheels roll a little too well at times and I may consider putting a small low pile rug underneath. Though its not really a problem. As mentioned, not a lot of experience with a variety of office chairs so I can't say if this was worth the cost. I do like leather though, so that was a selling point for me.4
I really like itMatthewI have had this chair for 3 years or so. I sit on it for maybe 2-3 hours a day and longer on the weekend if I am working on something. It is low profile and slides under the desk which I love, it feels good, and is very streamlined. I will validate there is no lumbar support, but other than that, I love it/5
Poor Quality Control on What Could've Been NiceAnonymous reviewerChair is comfortable - I loved the in store model - but I've built it twice now and I'm annoyed. The back of the first was incredibly crooked at its connection point to the frame, so I returned to the store and exchanged it. Took about 40 minutes at the store, plus the 30 there and 30 back. Got the new one home - and then the bottom AND back are crooked! Not as bad as the first, but I see it every time I look at the chair. Why should I have to return and rebuild this a third time, wasting all that time and gas, for a product this expensive?1
Review after 6 years of useTweshI bought this chair back in 2018 and have used it regularly everyday since then. As a full remote worker, a comfortable chair is an essential tool. I’ve seen and sat in chairs 3x the price but I love sturdiness and consistent comfort of this chair. It still feels as comfortable as it did the first day. The leather is really good quality and has aged very nicely. I don’t ever write product reviews but I thought i would take a moment to share my positive review of this one. 5
I likeRichardReally good assembly and quality 5
good qualityConnieSitting very comfortable 4
Comfy and sturdyLeslieI am loving this chair so far! I've used it for a week for work at the computer. The material is soft and my skin doesn't stick to it. I'm happy with the quality.5
Noisy and uncomfortableGaetanThe lumbar support is way too big and too firm for me, causing back pain. It is also very noisy/squeaky. The reclining strength is not adjustable, so that's useless too for me (too loose). I'm just beyond the 180 days, otherwise I'd return it.1
SplurgedJoannThe cost of this chair made me question my decision at first but it is so comfortable and sturdy. It was very easy to put together for IKEA and a beautiful, comfortable office chair.5
very comfortableYinghsuanThe wheel is easy to move, and the cushion is very comfortable. This chair is beautiful than it is in the photo.5
Poor quality controlAnonymous reviewerBack was manufactured crooked1
Fantastic desk chairAnnemarieI waited ~18 months for this chair to be back in stock in black. We love it, the leather feels great and support for your back is perfect. Also nice wheels on it.5
Comfortable ChairWilliamA very comfortable desk chair with the perfect size to fit a regular desk and a computer desk.5
Office chairPatriciaI have a very small office and this chair is a perfect size and is extremely comfortable.5
Comfortable chair for people with shorter legsLindaI had bought two other office chairs for my home office and they cut off the circulation to my legs because the seats were too deep.5
Issues with qualityAnonymous reviewerI’ve been waiting for 3 weeks so I was really happy when I received today. And I found one of the more important parts broken... The box was not damaged so I’m wondering about the quality of the product. I called the customer service but no one was available.1
Love this chair but ......AnonymousI don't seem to be able to lock out the tilt feature, Am I missing something?3
Comfy!AnonymousMy husband bought this chair for his office and the rest of his coworkers liked it so much that we bought two more. Simplistic style, classy looking, and very comfortable to sit in.5
wonderful chairAnonymous-beautiful, understated mid-century design (please convey our appreciation to the designer) -the first office chair i've sat on with real back support -good quality pebble-grain leather (we got the black and love it) -really straight forward instructions (greatly appreciated as we are not handy people) We just put together two of them. i'm sitting on one, and sitting up straight. (i'm 5'4--have no problem w/ with the height of height of chair.)5
High Quality ComfortValeenI have been searching for a nice leather office chair that would be comfortable. I wanted a more classic look that would slide under the desk even with the arms. This was perfect! I have it with my Hemnes desk in my home office.5

Material

What are leathers, skins and hides?

Leather is a durable material that we strive to produce as responsibly as possible. That’s why we only use by-products from the food industry and we have requirements for traceability to slaughterhouses, thereby ensuring ethically correct slaughters. The materials are then treated so that they’re usable for home decoration products. In this process we don’t allow the use of chrome, which is potentially harmful to both humans and the environment.

Designer thoughts

Designer thoughts

The challenge with ALEFJÄLL swivel chair was to combine retro style from the 1950s with the demands on function and comfort we have today. It is fully adjustable to your body, without looking technical, so it fits at home as well as in the office. I think chairs should look good from behind and I am particularly pleased with how the adjustable backrest integrates with the metal frame. ALEFJÄLL is comfortable, reliable and convivial – functional and stylish at the same time.
