just how good are ikea poang chairs?

[zixxer]

Currently I have a huge L shaped couch in my living room that's old and to the point of needing replaced. I have a decent cloth/microfiber loveseat in my office and a matching chair (non reclining).


I was thinking about getting a nice leather poang chair/foot thing and combining that w/ my loveseat and chair... thoughts?


I'd really like a nice leather couch/loveseat combo but they are $$$


a girl on craigslist in my area has a poang black leather chair/foot thing for $125... downside is apparently her cat has scratched a little on the leather on the foot thing...

They are fine for lounging in, but you can't sit up straight in them.
that and i thought they were only $125 new....

I have one. Its nice but I rarely use it. I sit on the futon cause its directly in front of the TV.

hmm... I want something more comfortable than the couch for playing games. facing the tv is too upright, and laying on my side gets uncomfortable

ok bought it... this thing is really comfy and great for gaming in front of the tv...


The footstool leather is scratched up a little, but i think they can be replaced.. anyone know the cost?
