Liberator Esse Lounge Chair, Champagne Velvish

Okay so here goes. My wife and i love this product. Its awesome, and we havent even explored all the possibilities for it. We dont have any issues like height or back pains that require us to use this, i just wanted something to use. The price is pretty high, and i thought that after reviewing that it was a foam thats inside i was skeptic but this product delivered. It arrives and is pretty heavy, bulky in the box. After creating enough room for the foam to expand it was pretty fun watching it form to what it was. It was a PITA to get the cover over it, however thats not a product fault and when you are on it, it stays to form and does not feel loose.The easy to remove cover makes messes or cleanups after fun a breeze. While im still very cautious about putting it in a room where company might view it, one could easily do so... I have some pretty smart family that would figure it out and i really don't want to have that conversation. The materials that its made out of is very easy on the skin, i dont feel fake, its not cold to the touch (leather for example first touch would be cold) and feels very resistant to other toys, body fluids from both male and female.The pillows make this chair, they are easy to move around and able to place at various positions to get the height or the flex that you need and where you need it. I was cautious at first if the pillows would stay in position and its not hard to move them but they do stay in position for the most part. Any more grip and i think you would see an issue with skin contact and feel sticky to the materials. They are made of the same foam and support you greatly. The one in the middle will support me sitting on it, with my weight fully on it and it wont budge, yet does not put pressure on any body parts, specifically testicles or inner leg, causing your legs to fall asleep or leave red marks. Firm to no question, yet forgiving where its needed. Another plus is the ability to remove the pillows and use them in bed or anywhere.I only wish this came with an option to swap one of the pillows with one that holds a vibrator, or a dildo for the wife. Since it would retain the shape anyway and id pay a few extra dollars for that option to swap out. Hopefully they see this review and consider it. If i ever save enough money ill review their product that already exists on the chair. i hope they offer it in the same material so it can match.

The material is slippery and no traction, if you get my drift. Also, a better positions guide would have been fun and helpful, great quality. Nice piece of furniture

This chair is wonderful. I am a very very heavy person (nearly 700lbs) and I am currently using this strictly as an office chair. Sitting on furniture even hurts at this weight, and this chair holds up to the weight very well. It doesn't have any moving parts I could break, and doesn't have any bars or hard internal parts that cut off circulation. I am amazed that after 9hrs of sitting on this chair it hasn't flattened to the floor, and I've been sitting on it for 10+ hrs a day for nearly a month now. It does sit a little low to the ground for me, seeing as I am also 6'4 or so, but the company also has a product called a FlipStage that helps raise the entire seat about 9in if I recall. I strongly recommend this chair for anyone larger. If you're afraid it won't handle your weight... if it'll hold me.. it will probably hold you and someone else at the same time. :)

My wife and I are pretty disappointed in this chair. We have several liberator throws, and absolutely love them, but sadly, this chair was a letdown primarily because it is very uncomfortable.First, the curves just don’t fit either of our bodies well. (I’m 5’10, 170) It’s very hard for the person on the bottom to get in a position that doesn’t hurt the back. Second, the angles of approach are all wrong once in position. Third, for some positions shown in the directions, you’d need to be about 5’3 and 110 lbs. The directions even SHOW the lounge raised up on blocks for one of the positions. We tried to use it as a chair just to sit in, and it is just very uncomfortable.Credit where credit is due, the chair is very well made. The outer layer is a perfectly fit liberator throw that zips in place. Inside that there is another liner that also zips off. No complaints about construction. This is the only reason they got 2 stars. Construction was worth 4 or 5, but ergonomics and customer support tanked it.My wife and I did all our testing fully clothed and kept the chair pristine. We disliked it enough to contact the company and request a return. They said they would take it back if it’s pristine, and that they would thoroughly test it. So far, so good. However, they do NOT pay for return shipping. They sent it out vacuum compressed and in a canvas compression bag, so it won’t go back into the box it came in. We had to use pliers to get the zipper open on the compression bag. Super tightly packed. To ship it back to them UPS ground costs $296, and you have to find a box that is 54x24x24. Thus, in reality, there are no returns. Might have rated higher if they’d have taken it back (you know they get discounted shipping), but after several e-mails with the company, they weren’t really doing anything to help. Their most helpful suggestion was “just wrap it in shipping fabric, it’s not fragile.” Right, I’ve spent $400 on it, and should spend another $300 to ship it, so that MAYBE they’ll give us our $400 back. Or maybe they’ll say it is damaged and we’ll be out $700 and no chair. I guess we’ll give it to Good Will, as even free, we wouldn’t keep it. Not worth the space it takes up. Our plain ottoman works better.
