Know before you buy
No, the Kent chair is a stationary piece that features swivel and gliding motions rather than a reclining mechanism.
Polyester is a durable, synthetic fabric known for its resistance to stains and fading. You can generally keep it clean by vacuuming regularly and spot-cleaning spills with a mild, water-based upholstery cleaner.
While the chair has a compact footprint of 29 inches wide by 35 inches deep, you should allow a few inches of clearance around the base to ensure the chair can swivel and glide freely without bumping into walls or side tables.
The back cushion is semi-attached, meaning it is secured to the frame to maintain a clean, tailored look while still providing the comfort of a plush, supportive cushion.
The seat features a boxed, welted construction designed for supportive comfort. It is engineered to hold its shape well over time while providing a stable, comfortable sit.
Yes, its transitional design and modest 29-inch width make it an excellent choice for smaller spaces. The smooth gliding motion is particularly well-suited for nurseries or cozy reading nooks.
