Before you buy, in the store

  • The layer-glued birch frame must be smooth: a crack starting at the armrest bend condemns the chair.
  • The cushion is sold new in several fabrics: a sound frame with a tired cushion is still a good buy.
  • Sit down and rock: a squeak usually means a loose screw, a crack means the wood itself.

POÄNG: a modular classic

The POÄNG is one of the world's best-selling armchairs, made for decades on the same principle: a bent laminated-wood frame and a cushion with an interchangeable cover. It comes in adult, child and rocking versions, with a matching footstool. Crucially, new covers are still sold separately: a tired chair refreshes on a small budget.

What really matters: the frame

A used POÄNG's value lies in its bent-wood frame. A stained cover or a flattened cushion can be replaced; a cracked frame cannot. Inspect the laminated wood along its whole length, especially the curved areas that carry the load.

  • Flex the chair: a sound frame springs softly with no sharp crack or visible split.
  • Flattened cushion or worn cover: negotiate, since a new cover is cheap.
  • On a rocking version, check there is no crack at the most stressed bend.

What to pay

A sound frame with a good cushion is often found at around half the price of a full new chair. If the cover needs replacing, deduct its new price and negotiate accordingly.
