We have two of these chairs which we bought when we were between houses and renting an unfurnished flat. Our sofas were still in our old house and we wanted some comfy chairs that were relatively cheap, just to tide us over until we sold and found a new house to buy. We had been using garden chairs as a temporary measure, but these were rather old and uncomfortable with springs bursting out and with a faint aroma of mildew from having been stored in the shed for so long. The Poang chairs cost £65 each and came flat packed. I assembled them on my own so it is a one-person job, but one that would probably have been a bit easier with two people.

This armchair was one of the things I bought in my huge pre-baby purchase from Ikea while furnishing our flat. I had very definite ideas of what I wanted in the living area but seeing the furniture displayed in Ikea changed my mind and I ended up getting a Klippan sofa and a Poang armchair to match for the living area. There are a few different kinds of Poang products, including a rocking chair and children's chair. I got the armchair with a black frame and white cushion cover to go with my white sofa. Yes, crazy to get white furniture when expecting a baby, I know, but I had been fantasizing about white furniture forever. The frame comes in ...  Read the complete review

My husband and I are in the process of revamping the nursery for a new arrival expected in July and we bought a Poang chair and footstool from Ikea to use in there. We had seen these chairs every time we'd gone to Ikea and had a sit in them and boy are they comfy! They are not really a rocking chair but they 'bounce' when you rock back and forth making them ideal for a feeding chair or just a comfy chair to kick back and relax in. The frame is available in a number of different wood finishes: beech, oak, pine and a dark wood which I can't remember the name of! We bought the oak finish and it is lovely, doesn't look cheap or like a naff veneer. The ...  Read the complete review

A few years ago we were looking for furniture for a flat in Lithuania. In one shop we saw some strange armchairs-chairs but they were so comfortable. Anyway we didn't buy them because of high price but kept on thinking to buy something like that some day. When we first went to Ikea here in NI and saw plenty of those armchairs - POANGS, we knew that quickly we were gonna get one! And we did! For a while already we have a POANG with a footstool from Ikea! WHAT IS IT A POANG is an armchair which consists of a wooden frame and a fabric or leather cushion with a headrest. Available designs: armchair, lounger, swivel armchair, ...  Read the complete review

When we moved house last year, we moved into a much bigger house and had much more space. Our house has been converted so what used to be the kitchen is now a second living room which we knew straight away would be perfect for the children. We had a sofa that would fit in the room but were lacking something suitable for the kids, so when I saw the Poang children's chairs at a friend's house I was eager to know where she had got them from. I couldn't believe it when she said Ikea so the very next day I popped down to the nearest store and picked two up. Priced at £20 each they are excellent value, and a year on they look good as new despite a lot of use by two ...  Read the complete review
