Question:

What do you think of this chair ?

I found a chair that looks great from walmart, here is the information:?Stylish tufted velvet chair ?High-performance, easy care fabric ?Dacron wrapped foam cushions ?Kiln-dried hardwood frame ?Solid wood outer frame and legs ?Assembly required ?Model# CVS51-C27From Walmart .

Answer:

The kiln-dried hardwood frame and solid wood outer frame and legs sounds good. It's hard to tell the quality of the foam, but if you can sit on the thing before buying it you can get a good idea. Just remember as a general rule the furniture Walmart carries isn't going to be around 20-100+ years from now. It's what lots of people refer to as throw-a-way furniture.
The foam used in furniture nowadays is not worth carrying out of the store. Even the good stuff will drop you on whatever is in the base of the seat. The cheap stuff will clump in less than a year, so the chair feels lopsided no matter how you sit. Plan on throwing this chair out in about a year. If you know how to reupholster chairs and can find some cotton batting then you can have a good chair like the ones that used to be Made In America. Otherwise you might as well sit on a bucket: it's just as good and a lot cheaper.
