Introduction

We would like to thank noblechairs for supplying the review sample.



One of the most crucial peripherals in an office is definitely the chair. From a gamer's spot to the fanciest office, what matters the most here are looks, comfort, and, for a large number of individuals, price. A chair has always been a means of expressing status - take a throne, for example. Throughout the years, furniture has in general become a means of expressing one's inner self and financial status quo. What matters the most, though, is whether a specific piece of furniture fulfills whatever specific purpose had one set out to get it in the first place; we, for instance, expect a chair to feel supreme, as comfortable as one might anticipate.


We have reviewed several chairs from different companies and have come across the same design and ergonomics in almost all of these reviews. We were expecting something innovative to come up eventually. noblechairs has thus far had two different entries in our review database, and the same company has since released a brand-new chair model we just had to take a detailed look at. What surprised us here is the distinct design and incredible stitching pattern we hadn't come across before. Made out of top grain leather, a solid steel frame, and fabricated with resistant and hard-wearing, stable cold foam, the ICON chair makes a fine first impression.

Packaging

The noblechairs ICON comes in a bulky package with a number of interesting bits of information as illustrations everywhere. The dimensions of the package are 87 x 37 x 70 cm (34.25" x 14.56" x 27.55"), and it weighs 30 kg (66.13 lb). With such ponderous dimensions, an extra pair of hands is advisable, especially if one has back problems.

We were expecting the chair, which had us conduct our research prior to its arrival, and we thus knew that the upholstery would be made out of top grain leather, and what baffled us was the leather's description of full grain leather on the box. We obviously got in touch with noblechairs and were told that a human error is to blame. If it were full grain leather, it would be as thick as a leather belt and hardly workable for a chair, which meant that top grain leather is used here, the second-best real leather option available, one suitable to a chair.

The top grain leather with precision stitching description refers to the process of sanding away the top surface's natural grain to remove all imperfections. Imitation grain also gets stamped into the leather in order to give it a more consistent appearance, which means no genuine grain leftovers exist anymore. By doing so, however, the leather loses its original durability and strength over the long run. Be it as it may, with an item out of genuine leather, this is the only way to have a clean-cut design with almost no imperfections.
