Stagecaptain CS-600R Movieking Cinema Chair, Red

The chair is exactly what I wanted.
Order, payment and delivery all worked out wonderfully.
Assembly, after studying the instructions, was easy.
Great thing.

Nice product with a few small pre-assembly errors. For example, the armrests are not properly aligned. One remains higher. When the left armrest of either chair is up, it touches the backrest. The right side isn't. Very poor assembly instructions. If you are not an experienced do-it-yourselfer, you will certainly have great difficulty. However, I would buy both chairs again. BEAUTIFUL AND GOOD

I've always wanted one. Got away from buying one or 2 old discarded ones. Fortunately. The Stagecaptain looks great and is also great - at a fair price. As the package was slightly damaged, a few small parts were missing, which were replaced promptly and without red tape. Very satisfied. If a small deduction, then for the craft instructions, which for my taste could be at least a little more detailed. But in the end it went. Another tip: the supplied base plate should be additionally attached to the floor or wall.

As for the seat itself: I, with 130 kg at 182 cm not the narrowest, can sit comfortably in the chairs and they make no signs of collapsing soon. The functions seat up folding are flawless. For the armrests, however, it required some WD40, despite the sliding discs, so that the cinema flair is not replaced by Muckibudenflair. Here one notices Chinese measure tolerances and must know to help itself. One also notices after folding up the armrests: The distance to the seat shell is not always uniform, which is sometimes due to slightly bent mounting forks of the armrests, through which the pivot thread is pushed. Can all be corrected with appropriate tools, if you have it.

The assembly is no problem for craftsmen. But for people who can only work according to instructions, it becomes frustrating: The picture allocation is not clean, the small parts on the too roughly rastered black.white pictures are not always clearly recognizable and the sketches are altogether too small. Who does not bring "so it can work" creativity, will labor at the first chair for a while.

But once you're through with it, you're faced with a visually appealing cinema chair that is space-saving when folded up, comfortable when seated, and exudes a certain new-car smell.

I myself ordered 5 armchairs and the optional connector armrests. Again, weaknesses in the concept become apparent as the base plate becomes useless with these connectors. If one would provide insertion openings at the standard base plate and deliver the connectors with a shortened plate, which would have suitable insertion profiles on both sides to plug into each other, the base plate of every second seat could be further used.
Alternatively, the seat shell, matching base plates and matching connector and outer armrests could also be offered in modular form, which would help to save material. In turn, perhaps then improve dimensional tolerances in manufacturing.
Fact: I have 5 armchairs for a row of 2 and a row of 3, so only need 2 of the 5 pairs of outer armrests supplied (the rest are in the corner along with 5 base plates). Good, I could be on the lookout for 3 of the same office chairs and DIY myself another 3 seats. Improved logistics with a modular system and optimized dimensional tolerances would help to get the 5th star.

Some might think that this review deserves only 3 stars, but that would not do justice to the final product, because the actual chair is really great.

Very good product, very good value for money, easy to order on your site, the assembly instructions are not very well explained but by deduction we still manage to understand quite easily, you must take your time for the first one. Conclusion, I am very satisfied.
On the other hand, if you could have it delivered by a company other than DPD... If I hadn't stayed and watched for the delivery man, who had no means of unloading (devil etc.), he would have left without trying to find out whether I was there or not and I would have been obliged, as every time I had to deal with them, to go and get these parcels from their depot. I've already had this recurring problem with them for different deliveries. They're probably cheaper, but it's a very bad delivery company. I think many of them would rather share in the costs than have to deal with their services.
