    The best chair

    I was a little hesitant about buying this chair without trying first, but I have never loved a chair as much as I love this one. It looks incredible, it is heaven to sit in, and I feel like it's even fixed my chronic bad posture. I can easily sit cross-legged in this chair(the main thing I was concerned about), but I have narrow hips, so factor that in.

    For the price it's a very good deal and I can tell it will last forever. I am very happy with my purchase and will absolutely purchase from Branch again!

    Softside chair

    Love the chair. The modern style, comfort, material and the limestone color. Exactly what I was looking for.

    It came quickly and the assembly was fairly easy. I would buy this again!
