Tafton Dark Blue Fabric Tufted Club Chair

Classy looking and very comfortable "overstuffed" armchair in dark blue with brass accents and espresso wood legs. My wife and I were very pleasantly surprised at the appearance and quality of this chair. The blue canvas-like polyester cloth is very rich-looking, and the tufting on the back makes it even more appealing. It is surprisingly lightweight, and the only assembly involves attaching the legs. Of course it isn't the equal of custom-made furniture, but it is hard to imagine finding anything better at this price point. The cushioning feels a bit stiff, and I expected it to take a hold a dent, but it has proven to be quite resilient and supportive -- very firm and comfortable. Also, large enough for story time with the kids. There's about six inches of clearance below the chair, and an interesting detail is a zippered compartment underneath (the legs came packed in there during shipping). Bottom line, it looks elegantly understated, and if it fits your decor, comes highly recommended.

Right out of Grandmas house. That’s what I thought when I first saw this chair. Classic style in an updated quality chair. The assembly was simple. Thread the four legs into the prethreaded holes in the bottom and you are done. It is a firm chair but not crazy firm. The seat cushion is kind of rounded which allows you to be comfortable while kind of settling back into the chair. It’s kind of hard to describe but the bottom line is that it is comfy. A really great value for an everyday or formal chair.

The Perfect Piece to Finish a Room with Style and Function. The Tafton Light Purple Fabric Tufted Club Chair (Model # 296539) from Christopher Knight Home is an elegant yet whimsical accent chair. We chose it as the finishing touch to a guest room, and it definitely met our expectations. We had been searching for a chair that was affordable, well-made, and fashion forward, and "The Tafton" delivered. It's a great value for the price. The well-done button tufting and evenly spaced bright chrome nail head trim are details you’d expect in a more expensive chair. The fabric has an upscale linen texture, but seems like a high enough thread count to hold up to regular use without showing wear. The light purple color gives it a modern sensibility. Add the convenience of having it shipped to your door -- no need to take off work for furniture delivery -- and you've got a winning solution! On the topic of shipping, there's a few things to consider: the chair is oversized (which makes it great for curling up with a good book) but that means the box it's shipped in is HUGE! It might not fit through your front door. We had to open the box on the front porch and bring just the chair in and even that was a close fit. Plan ahead and be prepared for delivery. You don't want the box sitting out in the rain, and you do need a second person to help wrestle the chair inside. The chair comes well packaged, but it is not shrink wrapped in plastic. If the box gets soaked, your chair would likely suffer water damage. Re: assembly, you will need to attach the legs to the chair. Our advice is do NOT attach the legs UNTIL you have the chair positioned in the room where you want it. This makes it way easier to maneuver the chair into place. We had to take our chair up stairs and around some tight corners, which was doable without the legs on, but would have been impossible with. Re: the beautiful espresso finish legs, they are tucked into a zippered compartment on the bottom of the chair. You'll need to flip the chair over, unzip the pocket, and retrieve the legs (which are well wrapped to prevent damage in shipping). Once you have the legs, they're easy to screw on -- just pay attention: the front legs are different from the back legs. If you mix them up, the chair may not sit correctly. A note to frequent movers like us: the zippered storage compartment is a great place to store the legs should you ever have to move the chair. We put the foam wrapping the legs came in back in the zippered compartment so it will be ready to use again the next time we move. Of course, every product has opportunities for improvement, and with "The Tafton" chair we have two gripes: 1) the seat cushion overhangs the front of the chair by more than two inches, giving it a somewhat sloppy profile depending on the angle from which you're viewing the chair, and 2) the seat cushion is WAY too firm for comfortable lounging. Add a throw blanket and a squishy pillow, and you're probably fine. Despite these issues, the Tafton chair still qualifies as a terrific choice for a decorative accent piece and is a great value for the price.

Attractive appearance with tufted back, nail head trim, and rich looking navy blue polyester fabric. Excellent value at price point. The wide seat has ample space to accommodate a user’s wide seat. Legs can be unscrewed and stored in a zipper compartment under the chair—useful to prevent damage when moving. Seat cushion is Velcro-attached to stay in place—convenient but cushion cannot be reversed for extended wear. Value pricing requires some compromises. Screw-in leg connections have limited strength. Manufacturer’s instruction warns against children jumping on chair. Believe it. The padding is polyurethane foam. The seat is firm and comfortable. Chair arrived packaged in a large L-shaped carton. Turning the carton side-wise enabled maneuvering it through the door. User assembly is minimal: After moving chair to desired room, screw in the legs. All in all, an attractive affordable choice. Made in China.

This club style chair was very easy to assemble – you just attach the four legs (see pictures) and you are done! I really like how wide the seat is on this chair (see picture). It gives you a lot of room, and it is a good fit for the corner or any other place in a room in view of its width (see picture). I have to comment on a “bonus” feature of the chair. For shipping, the legs are well-packaged and wrapped in a zippered semi-circle compartment underneath the chair (see picture). Once you remove the four legs from that storage space, it leaves a good size zippered pocket under the chair. I am thinking that this is a great storage space for valuables! Ingenious design! I am not sure anyone would think of looking under the chair for that. The cloth material used in the chair seems like it will hold up well in daily use. I highly recommend this club chair!

I absolutely love this chair. It is gorgeous, well built. Easy to move around and big enough for me and my little one when we read books. It has become one of my favorite place in the house to sit back and relax.

This chair arrived in great shape - it was packaged in a form fitting cardboard box with a fabric protective liner. The legs are in a separate pouch inside the box and are easy to attach to the chair. The chair itself looks great and is reasonably priced !! It has an extra large seat and with the tufted seat back and nail head trim, it is very stylish. We especially like the dark blue color.

Delivery was great, well protected. No problems. Really lovely accent chair, beautiful! Feels very firm which I like a lot (no sinking down into chair) easy to get out of. Not the most comfy chair for reading, no head/neck support; if you want a super-comfy chair this isn’t it, but great for guests.

I love this chair!!! It’s even more beautiful in person

Received the Tafton Light Purple Fabric Tufted Club Chair as ordered, and it is phenomenal! I placed it in my sunroom after installing the feet which was incredibly easy. The feet screw into the bottom very easy, a two minute job. This chair is so comfortable as you can see my doggy had to model it for me! I’m so happy I got this chair, the color matches perfectly in my sunroom with my bohemian style rug and room decor, and makes my room look so much more inviting and upscale! I love the silver tacks that goes along the edges, it gives the chair a rich look, and the stitching is so perfect and spot on. This Tafton club chair sure hits the mark in style, comfort and classic trends, and i’m Hoping to order another chair in the future from this company, I feel it’s a sure keeper and people will be so pleased they got this!
