Made to order items are not returnable.

If youre looking to invest in an accent chair, we recommend the Lulu & Georgia Banks Accent Chair.

Plus, it doesnt require any assembly, unlike some other options.

Since this chair is made to order, its worth noting that its not returnable.

Evaluate and measure the space to see whether or not it will not be overloaded with a chair.

It should also be a comfortable size for you to sit on.

Leather chairs are durable and usually get softer over time.

Chairs made with synthetic fabrics, such as polyester, are affordable but can pill or snag easily.

The material has a special influence on the durability of the chair, says Juzenaite.

This depends on the appearance of the chair and how many years the chair can be in your interior.

In other words, a new accent chair that feels firm may become softer.

Juzenaite explains that the chairs construction is directly correlated to its maximum weight capacity.
