Aubrey Armchair

Room×Lab Review · Review updated August 28, 2026

Aubrey Armchair owners praise its comfort and sturdy build, but the curved arms can pinch broader sitters

Room×Lab read 194 distinct written owner reviews of the Rove Concepts Aubrey Armchair, averaging 4.7 stars: 168 five-star, 26 four-star and none below four stars. Rove's terms let it remove or edit content at its discretion, and its reviews carry no verified-owner or incentive labels, so weigh that average accordingly. The reviews cover every upholstery color and wood finish on this listing; 19 are recent and 175 older, and few owners report beyond early use. The separately sold Aubrey Side Chair has its own reviews and is not included here. Most of the reviews below raise a complaint or a caution, so they lean more critical than the reviews overall.

Room×Lab rating: 7.9 out of 10 (limited confidence). Aubrey Armchair owners praise its comfort, looks and solid build, though Rove's page shows no reviews below four stars and Rove may edit content. A tight fit for some bodies and few reports beyond early use keep it short of a top score.

• Comfort is common; firmness and fit are personal: 63 favorable comfort mentions and 15 favorable size-and-fit mentions in the owner-review evidence — Some owners describe firm, thinner-feeling cushioning and an upright seat; one found the armchair less padded than the side chair. Several taller or broader owners, including one at 6 ft 2 in and 220 lb, found the curved armchair narrow at the hips or thighs.
• The build looks solid, with isolated execution flaws: 16 favorable stability mentions and 21 favorable appearance, color or finish mentions in the owner-review evidence — Owners often call the chair sturdy and attractive. Single reports describe misaligned screw holes on one chair in an order, shipping damage, crooked tags or an unexpected finish color, rather than a broad defect pattern.
• Care and support are usually straightforward: 13 favorable care mentions and 10 favorable service-and-support mentions in the owner-review evidence — Owners commonly describe wipeable upholstery and prompt help with defects. Some owners report debris collecting in the gap between seat and back that is hard to clean out.

Before buying

Measure your hips and thighs against the 19.3-inch seat width, and ask Rove for the arm height to check your table-apron clearance; owners report the curved arms can feel confining.
