POLY and BARK EVA TASK CHAIR in VEGAN LEATHER, GREY by Poly and Bark

When assembled, this entry level office chair is really much nicer than the typical entry level office chair. The "vegan leather" is very soft and smooth. The padding in the chair is very comfortable and the chair travels up and down very smoothly and easily. However, the chair does not tilt back at all - it is at a 90 degree angle and not going anywhere. So, if you like a tilt to the back of your chair you will not want this chair. 

On the whole, this chair was very easy to put together until I got to the last step. After I spread out the parts I timed how long it would take to actually build the chair. After 20 minutes I was all done except for attaching the back of the chair. 

Same bolt - different view

The cross threaded bolt

But, finishing the job took another 25 minutes because of the size of the base plate that attaches the seat to the post. The plate is simply too large because it looks like it was designed to fit on more than one chair. It doesn't really fit this chair because it partially blocks the arm that holds the chair back so that 2 of the screws don't align properly. 

All secured

I have included two pictures of the problem.
To fix the problem, I took off the base plate and slid it as far from the where the arm that holds the chair back attaches and reattached it. Both chair back screws did fit - but both are certainly cross-threaded because I couldn't get them into the holes at the correct perpendicular angle. I had a very hard time getting the last screw in. It is most certainly not coming back out again. Having to re-attach the base plate and then fighting with the screws added an extra 20 minutes to what should have been a 25 minute build time.

I rate this chair 4 stars out of 5. I am taking off a star because of the unnecessarily difficult build.

ECR4Kids School Stack Resin Chair (6 Pack) 12" seat height

These are perfect chairs for children in pre-school, pre-kindergarten and kindergarten. By the time they get to first grade, they probably are a little too big for these chairs. The seat sits 12 inches off of the ground. They come in four different colors: blue, red, yellow and green.

The bright colors are sure to be a big hit with the children but the fact that these chairs are very easy to stack is sure to be a big hit with the adults. The molded plastic is very strong. The fact that each one of these sturdy chairs is one molded piece of plastic means that children won't get their legs pinched by loose rivets in the seat and students with long hair won't get their hair pulled by rivets in the seat back. 

I rate these chairs 5 stars out of 5.

As of the time of this review, a set of 6 of these chairs cost $94.99 on Amazon.com. Click here to check current pricing: ECR4Kids School Stack Resin Chair (6-Pack), 12", Assorted Colors.
