Comments

The Dovre chair''s quality and longevity appear highly variable depending on usage and storage. While comfort and aesthetics are widely praised, durability issues, particularly with the plastic wickerwork and its susceptibility to sunlight damage, are frequently reported. The linked footrest and backrest mechanism remains a source of negative feedback. Users who store their chairs indoors report significantly longer lifespans. The availability of replacement parts seems problematic. The chair''s lightweight nature makes it easy to move, but one reviewer notes that the cushion was dirty upon delivery.
