“Bought this Chaise Lounge in White. Assembly was OK. It's very sturdy so far. I think it's really comfortable. I've fallen asleep in it a couple times. I'm 6'2" and feet barely hang off the edge. I would have given it 5 stars except for the pillows. The are large but not comfortable at all. I put them next to the back rest for support and use 2 different, more comfortable pillows.
The storage area is nice and roomy. This was my first purchase from IKEA. I applied for the store credit card and despite making over $75,000/year and credit rating over 800, I was not immediately approved. I only applied to get the $25 discount on the first purchase.
It's been over a month and I still haven't heard from IKEA if I was approved or not. Oh well. I would recommend this chaise lounge. The price was good and it looks nice in your living room.”
