Excellent customer service and beautiful barber chair
Love the look of this chair and have clients tell me how comfortable it is. My only complaint is its difficult to lay the chair back, requires a lot of wait or force. Other than that love it!

Exceeds Expectations
More than satisfied with this chair! It met all my expectations. My first being durability; I was nervous to make this large purchase because despite the awesome design, I need a practical barber chair that will handle ‘all’ my clients without breaking down. I just serviced one of my heavier clients, (he told me he was 393lbs), a couple days after my chair arrived. This was a test for sure. The chair performed perfectly! Recline and all! I was so thankful. This is such a beautiful chair. It seems to be well made. Super easy assembly. Just a few screws, 6 total to be exact! And it shipped to me quickly! The entire experience was one of the best I’ve every had! I am a 10 year barber so far and know certain features I would like out of my equipment and tools…if you are particular as well, this definitely will be one of the products that you will say, “that’s what I’m talking about, this is exactly what I’ve been wanting!” Oh, also..the back rest is at perfect height, I don’t have to constantly remove and re-insert my head rest. Except for little kids, I can keep it in during all my haircuts! Ps. This is the first time I’ve ever left a review…that should tell you a little something about how excited I am over this chair!

Perfect
So far, and it’s only been a week or two, it’s perfect. Raises very high (I’m tall). Looks like an original. The only challenge is turning the chair around as it’s heavy, I believe. That or needs some sort of lubrication.

Very well built and strong barber chair
Was not expecting this chair to be well made. Usually “retro” items look great but are shoddy. This chair will outlive my grandchildren. Very thick metal, solid construction. Highly reccomend this item if you do hot shaves. It allows you to work around it and the seat slowly reclines doesn’t slam down like some others I had tried. And, it just looks plain cool. Period.

This is the 6th one of these particular chairs that I purchased for my shop. We have had 4 of them for over 2 years and they don’t show hardly any wear. The customers love the look and the comfort of them.

STUNNING QUALITY
I have wanted a vintage Koker chair but to find one at a decent price is rare! This chair got my attention on Pinterest and totally caught my eye. I researched information and read reviews only to learn positive input. I pulled the trigger and ordered one. I received my invoice and shipping info which it arrived within a week (only because I ordered it on a Thursday afternoon just missing their days shipment. Still a week and it arrived)! All that was required was to unpack, attach the back rest (4 screws), and floor support for the foot rest (2 screws). Top quality. Spins 360 degrees with ease and reclines for comfortable shaves. WHY DID I WAIT? Don’t debate if you’re looking for a barber chair. Get this and thank me later! I’d gave it 10 stars if I could. LOVE IT!
