Lento 25" Leather Lounge Chair

Room×Lab Review · Review updated August 28, 2026

Black Lento owners describe a comfortable, compact chair; across all three leathers, back-cushion loops that unravel and cushions that sag recur

Room×Lab read all 331 distinct written reviews that Article shares across its Lento leather chairs, dated December 2017 through August 2026. They cover the Black, Teres Tan and Charme Green leathers, posted under the current and earlier Lento listings, so some accounts describe another color or an earlier production run than today's Black chair. Of 479 star ratings, 435 are four or five stars. The six reviews below range from one to five stars, with stated use periods from under a year to almost three years; they do not show how common each experience is.

Room×Lab rating: 7.8 out of 10 (medium confidence). Black Lento owners describe an attractive, comfortable chair, and owners across all three leathers praise its fit in small rooms. A recurring minority report back-cushion loops unraveling, cushions sagging, screws stripping and wobble, and some said replacement parts were unavailable after the warranty.

• Comfort: Usually comfortable, but better suited to conversational seating than plush lounging — Owners usually call it comfortable; complaints center on firmness, the reclined posture, limited back support and discomfort during longer sessions. Across 331 reviews of the Black, Teres Tan and Charme Green Lento chairs, 136 praise its comfort.
• Compact fit: A strong small-room choice with a lower profile than some shoppers expect — Owners often praise the small footprint, though some found the chair unexpectedly low or miniature beside full-size furniture; a Black-chair owner called it undersized next to a full-size sofa. Across all three leathers, 72 reviews praise its size and fit.
• Durability: Back-cushion loops and fill are the repeated weak point — Complaints recur: back-cushion loops that split or unravel, one on a lightly used Black chair owned since February 2023; a Teres Tan back cushion that sagged below the wood within a year; screws on a Black chair that stripped within months and left it rocking; and wobble. Across all three leathers, 17 reviews praise its durability.

Before buying

Choose the Black Lento for compact conversational seating if a 15-inch-high seat suits you. Owners report recurring unraveling back-cushion loops and sagging cushions, so ask Article which cushion parts it sells after the one-year warranty.
