Stormwoody II Swivel Upholstered

Yes, this chair is ideal for compact urban living. With a width of 31 inches and a pedestal base that creates a smaller "footprint" than traditional four-legged chairs, it provides a sense of openness in tight spaces. The 360-degree swivel functionality is particularly useful in multi-functional rooms, allowing you to easily rotate the chair from a desk setup to a living area conversation.

The high back design, standing at 30.5 inches, provides enhanced upper-body support that lower-profile "slipper" chairs lack. When combined with the padded arms and full-foam seat, this chair is engineered for longer periods of lounging, making it a functional reading chair rather than just a decorative accent.

To maintain the "plush" appearance of the velvet, we recommend regular vacuuming with a soft brush attachment to remove dust and prevent matting. For spills, our general care guidelines suggest blotting the area immediately with a clean, dry cloth. Because this fabric is designed for easy cleaning, most minor spots can be managed with gentle blotting rather than heavy scrubbing, which preserves the fabric's nap.

Yes, customer assembly is required for this model. This typically involves securing the chair body to the swivel pedestal base. This design allows for more efficient shipping and ensures the item can easily fit through narrower doorways and hallways during the move-in process.

Velvet is an excellent option for pet owners because it lacks the looped weave found in fabrics like linen or tweed, which can easily snag on claws. The plush velvet used here is also labeled as easy to clean; while pet hair may be drawn to the fabric, it typically sits on the surface and can be quickly removed with a lint roller or a damp rubber glove.

The metal pedestal construction offers superior stability and a sleek, modern aesthetic. Unlike wood, which can be susceptible to warping or cracking in varying humidity levels, the metal base provides a consistent, heavy-duty foundation. The black finish on the metal also offers a high level of scratch resistance compared to stained wood.
