Its Bonded leather, a material that's mixed with leather, I care for it by using leather cleaner I by the wipes, & the chair is light weight.

not sure about the material, we use ours strictly for cleaning purpose in and around the kitchen, my thought from on this product; it does not have the soft texture that I associate with a cloth for polishing furniture, hope this helps

I have has my chair for about 6 months and have had no problem with the "leather". I use it 5 days a week in my office.

Since I had the seat installed for me, I can't answer about the material used. I can only say that after a year of use, I have had no problems whatsoever. I am a very large woman and have found the seat to be extremely comfortable and sturdy.

Sorry, I never received a response; however, we just decided to get an old wooden chair and use that as it seems it would dig in and it also gets quite dirty. We decided to preserve our nice chairs instead!

I've forgotten the industry name for the stuff, but it is 'mostly' leather, a composite of ground up leather and synthetics which feels, acts, and smells like leather, is sturdy and authentic looking. The chair is attractive, has a nice 'hand' if you prefer to sit on on leather, and is a bargain. I suspect the frame will loosen up and fail long before the composite leather upholstery wears out. Ah, found it in Wikipedia, it's 'bonded leather', "...The US Federal Trade Commission recommends according to 16 C.F.R. Section 24: "For example: An industry product made of a composition material consisting of 60% shredded leather fibers may be described as: Bonded Leather Containing 60% Leather Fibers and 40% Non-leather Substances."[7] The Federal Trade Commission has said that "The guidelines caution against misrepresentations about the leather content in products containing ground, reconstituted, or bonded leather, and state that such products, when they appear to be made of leather, should be accompanied by a disclosure as to the percentage of leather or other fiber content. The guidelines also state that these disclosures should be included in any product advertising that might otherwise mislead consumers as to the composition of the product..."

The seat and back materiel is probably plastic, but it feels like leather and is soft and pliable. I am very satisfied with my chair.

Hi, the chair is vinyl and is very easy to clean with a soft cloth. My son spilled juice on it recently and I used baby wipes to clean it up easily. My boys love their chairs!

The material look like salon vinyl. Either way it's non porous, easy to clean, and has held up well in the last two years to the harsh chemical cleaners we use here

Hi Anne, the sides of the seat and back rest (inside is leather) and legs seem to be made of real wood. The frame of the seat is plywood. The wood is really light thought, so it is not very sturdy like one would expect from, say, a chair made from teak or oak. I did notice that the wood seemed to chip easily. Perhaps it is just the type of wood. Doesn't come across as a very high quality item, but then it doesn't cost as much either.

Im not sure I would. What I would do is (with the right chemicals of course and always try in a corner out of the way) Pre spray the chairs w chem real well, take a softer hand scrub brush and dip it in a bucket of chem/water mix and scrub the seats. I would only also do that if you either have a carpet cleaner w attachment or a shop vac (that end of hose was washed) and use either attachment or use shop vac to slowly extract cleaner and dirt will come w it. May need a 2nd shot, but I have both med and firm and have only used them on a carpet type material. Even the med is too firm for that stuff. Need soft brush and best chemicals.

The mirror appears to be real glass. Against the backboard it's hard to tell, but definitely not cheap plastic. The upholstery on the seat is stapled to the chair top, I'm not sure if it is glued underneath the staples because it is attached fairly tight and can't be lifted

The upholstery is not real leather but its wears great. It breaths and it maintains its shape. I am very pleased with the upholstery and I've had my chair and use it daily for the last nine months.

You are correct. It is not real leather, rather it appears to be bicast or faux leather. Despite this fact, the chair looks great and the material is smooth and has a nice sheen to it. The construction is solid. I have received numerous compliments on it.

The upholstery is synthetic, the buttons are 'imitation covered'... I should update me review of this piece... I've had it for a while now and have literally had to re-build this chair... My advice: Don't waste your money.... Just like one of the earlier reviewers, I had to replace the wheels, but also had to replace the hydraulic lift.

Yes it is, but not too shiny, kind of a semi gloss. I'm very happy with the chair

I use it on both fabrics. Primarily bought for non leather seats. It is great!
