    Viking have this leather chair for €39.99 ex. vat which works out around €49.19.

    To get free delivery your order total has to be €75 or more (ex vat) otherwise its €5 ex. vat. for delivery.

    Thats a great price, but it was originally 45 so it's only a fiver off

    Is it a good chair? I want to buy it, but the one I have was supposed to be good and it's rubbish

    Bought some of these the last time they were at this price. Its not a great chair or anything but at the price its a lot better than the alternatives.

    I put a few of those chairs together on a job. You get what you pay for!

    Bought that chair ages ago and never liked it.

    Not very comfortable and started smelling when you sit on it for a while and heat it up.

    I have a very much similar chair. The height on mine is not adjustable (there is no lever with that function) and the arms end up being the same height as the table, so I can't move it under the table. With that said, I feel comfortable when sitting on it and mine does not smell bad ;)

    Quit blaming the chair for your flatulence!

    I have this chair now for two years and while it was fine when I got it it is now very uncomfortable. As was said before, you get what you pay for.

    3 times as expensive but worth it

    I have had the Berlin for three years and my main office chair and find it very comfortable.

    If you are in any way tall you will find this chair very uncomfortable.

    I've got one for the last 3+ years and it's been good to me, they were on sale at a better price than this before when I bought it (and one for my girlfriend).

    I'm a big (ok, fat!) guy, 6' tall and I find it comfortable. It's cheap and cheerful (chairful? ;)) as office chairs go - can't raise or lower the seat and it's locked either upright or unlocked and reclines (and it's up to you to pick how far back you want to lean and keep yourself there).

    It's not bad Tal- it's frequently on offer from Viking. Here is another BA post about it in 2007! I have mine around 4 years now and can't complain. I'm sure there are comfier chairs but it's certainly not bad.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,030 ✭✭✭jpb1974


    I have the Berlin and personally I think it was great value for money.

    I'm 6 ft 4 in and weigh about 17 stone and can't say I have an issue with it. It's reasonably comfy and sturdy. Chair height is adjustable.

    Myself and a few tall boardsies agreed in the last thread that the lower bit that sticks out is too low if you are tall and can give you a sore back, unless you slouch that is.

    But perhaps we were just fussy!

    You're probably right but no other chair I use "absorbs" like it does.
