The perfect kitchen chair!
Date:03/04/2013
We use the chairs as kitchen chairs and live them. They are comfortable but perfect for children and they can easily be cleaned and are sturdy. But they are also elegant enough to keep out with guests over!!

Bottom line: I paid for 4 Vapor Chairs. I received 4 Vapor Chair Seats and 4 Phoenix Chair Frames. I returned to the store (second trip today) and they swapped out the frames for the correct ones. I brought the correct frames home and 2 out of 4 wobbled. I paid $180 per chair with the belief that I was paying for quality. I received a 50% defect rate in my purchase. The store confirmed that they have had similar complaints about this chair in the past. I made a third trip to CB2 and they will try to send me two replacement $180 plastic chairs that do not wobble two days from now. The staff was apologetic. Corporate leadership needs to step up quality to match customer service standards. You're in the furniture business. Accurate dimensions and pieces that can sit flat on the floor are important. Bring the VP of Quality and the VP of Manufacturing in and have them read this. You just spent the margin on these chairs restocking defective product and overnighting me replacements. This sale resulted in a loss due poor quality. Moreover, it damaged the probability that I will return to CB2 for future purchases. Let's hope the frames that arrive overnight do not have the same defect.
Being my first acrylic clear piece of furniture I was a bit nervous of maintaining its cleanliness. However, I hardly see fingerprints at all. I am using it as a desk chair in my small room and the clear acrylic provides an illusion that helps prevent the idea of bulkiness.

These are sturdier than any other acrylic or fiberglass chair we have looked at. The acrylic is molded just so that they are incredibly comfortable to sit in, and they feel like they will stand the tests of time--and a two-year-old. Have narrowed it down between these and the charlie chairs, but I need to take the hubby down to the store to try them both out before we pull the trigger.

We just bought these chairs and love them. They are paired with a Spanish Revival dining table from the 30s and look wonderful in our small dining room. Chairs were easy to assemble and are very well constructed.
We ordered 2 of these chairs for the new 100 sqft kitchen in our in-law apartment and they are perfect---great looking, comfortable, and "disappear" to provide the illusion of more space than we have. Our teenage grandson asked for them for his room and we plan to order more.

Was looking for 4 modern barstools for our new urban town home. Assembly was simple & chairs appear to be comfortable although we have not yet moved in so are not using them on a regular basis yet. I was looking for something sleek that would tuck into the island bar without standing out too much. Can't wait to use them.
Love the lines of this chair. Beauty and comfort. Perfect to keep spaces open and comfortable.....I live in a small apartment. Can't recommend it enough
Only problem for me was putting it together with washer, bolt and nut......tricky and time consuming....gets less so on 2nd and with another person

I found these chairs in the CB2 catalogue while casual- ly flipping through it. I was captivated by them. They are transparent and have a magical aspect to them. They are extremely comfortable & support your back nicely. I have them placed around my butcher block table in my kitchen & they are stunning.

We recently bought these chairs to go along with the Dylan Table and we love them! Like a lot of the other reviews said, they are much more comfortable than we expected! Any fingerprints show very clearly, so I'm not sure how well a family with kids would like them, but any marks wipe up easily with a damp cloth. My husband is a very muscular guy (6'1" and 220 lbs) and they are very sturdy, even for him. CB2 was great to work with and scheduling delivery was easy!
We saw this at a friends' house and decided to purchase. We like that it was easy to assemble, easy to clean, and a very sturdy chair. Also, since it's clear, it does not take us visual space and gives a room more space. Finger prints do show up since it's clear, but it's pretty easy to wipe off

Finally was able to buy the three other chairs to match the test one I got earlier this year. Dining room now complete and does it look terrific. City loft chic in an urban Texas setting. The room looks and feels much bigger. Just what I was going for.

I really love these. I got 4 for the kitchen. You can imagine they are not perfect for kids because of the finger prints but they wipe clean and clear with damp rag. Wish the back was a tad higher but still really like them.

Bought these for a gym sales area and they look awesome. Have received nothing but compliments on how nice they look and how comfortable they are. They bring the caliber of the gym sales area above standard.
These chairs are amazing. I ordered 8 of them to go with a sleek, minimalist walnut table and they look so much better than I could have imagined. They just disappear into thin air. I was afraid that plastic chairs would look cheap, but the clear acrylic is so thick and high-quality. I am surprised at how comfortable they are, too. Nice and wide across the bottom, and just enough "give" when you lean back. Highly recommend.
I bought this counter stool for my husband to sit with me while I cook dinner and he can still see the TV ;) It works for both worlds! He is a tall, muscular man so I was worried about the thickness of the acrylic, it is strong and comfortable. I will buy more if we ever redo our kitchen.
