@Roseann Malcuit Bleiwiess I have the same issue with my black one that I bought in May 2016. It has unraveled like yours. I was thinking of using glue to hold it in place. Even thought about Gorilla crazy glue or something. However I am going to try to see if there is anyway I can tuck it in.. Otherwise I will end up trying the glue route. Will keep you updated. If you already fixed yours do provide update.

Are you combining a good way of sitting with a good design? If yes, arm rests are nice, when a dinner takes longer than 1 hr or so. It helps if there is a cushion available that people want to use where the back of the chair is rounded (and people prefer to sit upright). Under no circumstance should the seat slope backwards. The sitting level should be flat - no slope. The cushion can carry a lot of design and colour suitable to the environment. I love simple chairs .... and it helps not to put too many chairs around the table.... (unless you have a big family), have two chairs against the wall somewhere close. Sit on chairs before you buy them. (And a personal thing: I LOVE different chairs. Never more than a pair of 1 design) - like in the picture with the2 green armchairs and the bench. That is just great and suits different situations and guests. (To siriuskey...... I would sit on the bench)

Id be inclined to do something like this chair - http://www.cocorepublic.com.au/julian-indoor-outdoor-occasional-chair-4806 but I don't like your red stools so I would personally change the stools to tie into the neutral theme..... in keeping with the pop of red, How about a plush patterned dining chair? you can pick fabrics from warwick and get them made! - see example below but obviously have a hint of red and white and grey perhaps??

I have some 60s TV chairs that recline, I love them because they are a bit retro and suit my dodgy back. I had them reupholstered at the very exorbitant cost of $500 each! They are now a fabric I love but, as someone else pointed out, went from squashy and comfortable to hard foam. I'm spending a lot of time sitting in them to soften them up ;) Also one of them had a higher back, which fitted my 6ft partner, but when they came back they were all the same height. My fault as I should have talked it through with the upholsterer. I would do it again but only for furniture I really love, and I'd be very clear about what I wanted. On another note, we had 2 club chairs made for us more than 20 years ago - we love love them and they will be good as new for a long time. It was way better than reupholstering 2 old club chairs.
