Quality Concerns
The reviewer, Adam White, has expressed disappointment with the leather quality of the product. Despite being satisfied with the carpentry, he notes that the leather is sprayed, not dyed, which results in a shorter lifespan.
Durability Issues
Adam White shares his personal experience, stating that the leather has failed to last for more than a year, despite being assured that the issue would be resolved. He has had to recover his furniture twice, with the same problem recurring.
