Reviews
Do Not Buy!BarThis cushion is EXTREMELY uncomfortable for an average height woman. It is a torture to sit on. The head cushion sticks out to much! I have no idea what the designer was thinking. I had an older style cushion that was very comfortable.
Most Comfortable Chair EverMatthewThis chair is perfect. You can read a book, watch a television show, or just fall asleep. It feels like you're sitting on a cloud, and takes about 30 minutes to build. I personally went with the Gunnared Dark Gray, and it's soft, and makes you feel like you're retired (even if you're not). 10/10.
Looks new forever!KimberleyPurchased in '06-'07 with matching footstool for family "recliner" where various people read, eat, drink, crochet, fall asleep, etc. Twenty years ago. Has taken an assortment of beatings. If I had a quarter for every time food or drink was spilled, for how many times I've used with heating pad for my back or the stool for my knees, for every time young fam members bounce it way too hard ... Wood has hardly a nick or scratch, and when I wipe it down with wood cleaner, it shines like new. Yesterday, for the first time - in 20 years - removed upholstery cover to wash (hot & then line dry, as directed): Takes some work to get the internal foam cushions out, & especially back on; but so worth it: The upholstery is also like new. So I'm looking at this brand new 20yo chair next to our other furnishings ... it's practically heirloom quality. My son & DIL just bought first house. I think I'll gift them one.
Great armchairSandraVery comfortable and stylish. Easy to assemble. Many color options and matching cushion that you purchase separately.
Finally a Poäng!SheilaThe chair is very comfortable and it fits in with my eclectic living room style. All of my adult sons are pleased with the chair to sit in for movies and basketball games that last a couple of hours!
Poor qualityAnonymousThe hole on one side of the the chair back where you bolt in the chair arm was drilled almost a fuli inch off from where it should have been positioned. Managed to bolt it together, but can't believe how shoddy Ikea furniture now is! Had similar problem with a Hemnes tv stand - holes were just drilled in the wrong places, or not drilled out completely. Unacceptable, Ikea!
Love this chairJulieThis chair has made my sofa redundant. It’s so comfy to sit in. There is nothing negative I can say about it. Love it!
Built wellEdwardMore comfortable than I ever expected, very happy with purchase
Decent chairDamonI am fairly large. This chair looks good and is reasonably comfortable. If I get another chair I would get a similar chair without arms. That being said. Good chair. No regrets.
Pieces don’t fit!ArleyYears ago I put together a POANG chair and it was very easy. This new one is frustrating because some of the holes don’t match and I can’t finish putting it together. Now what?
Warning for ParentsHannahI am currently sitting in this chair with my baby, about to have an absolute crash out. For the love of god, DO NOT get this chair for your nursery. The rocking base barely rocks, my calves are getting so strong, but not because I want them to! The worst thing about this chair is that it is so lightweight, it constantly scoots as you’re rocking in it. You’re trying to get your baby to sleep and just praying that they fall asleep before the chair you pulled several feet away from the wall is hitting the wall because it migrated across the room with each rock.
The chair is comfortable and looks nice with all of the other ikea furniture in my nursery, so I’ll give it that. But I am truly about to lose my mind, and wish I hadn’t spent my rocking chair budget on this pick.
Poang chairAileenI love this chair! Easy to assemble and comfortable to sit in. I wish there were more varied covers to choose from.
Nice ChairStephenI like this chair vs a rocker. Total cost is really not reasonable unless you get a discount like we did. Easy to assemble. Cushion is ok but could be thicker. The down side the thicker cushion is overpriced and sold separately.
Great chairChristopherWe've owned this chair for a while now & its been of excellent quality.
Beautiful and comfortable WendyLove this. Buy with matching ottoman. So comfortable
Nice chairMinhComfortable chair. Light enough to move around the house without any problem. Only cons is it is physically hard to get out of the chair once you sit down.
chairs are great but...Christhese chairs are great but the covers are not. washing them is nice, but putting the foam back in is like herding cats. for whatever reason there's "sticky" fabric lining the inside and it makes it nigh impossible to arrange the foam correctly. mine are somewhat older so maybe the newer ones don't have it.
Love it!JeanAttractive, comfortable and just what I needed!
POANG ChairSusanThis is my third purchase of this chair. It is comfortable to sit in and there are many choices of chair covers to choose from which matches any decor. Highly recommend! Fits most budgets too
Poang chairChristineI have purchased 6 of the poang chairs. Three as gifts for this Christmas. They are so comfortable. Have good back support. Easy to assemble.

Material
What is layer-glued wood?
With layer-glued wood it’s possible to create flexible and extra strong constructions with curved shapes, like frames for armchairs. The secret is a technique where many layers of thin wood veneer are glued together and then pressed into the desired shape. We often use wood like birch, beech, ash and even bamboo – and strive to use the raw material as smartly and efficiently as possible to avoid waste. Just like solid wood, it has natural variations in structure and colour.
