Case 02 · Upholstered chairUpholstery, dimensions & frame protection
The source report states May 28; year not specified.
The inspection recorded appearance, dimensional, label and construction-related concerns on upholstered chairs.
Dimensional discrepancy: The measured depth was 52.5 cm while the printed shipping mark stated 56 cm.
Frame edge: Internal square-tube edges were described as sharp enough to risk damaging fabric. The report requested added protection at tube ends.
Upholstery and finish: Wrinkles, an uneven backrest surface, loose thread ends and scratches were recorded.
Foam concern: The report noted that the seat felt thin when sitting and asked the factory to pay attention to density. It did not record a completed density test.
Labels: A discrepancy between measured height and printed markings was recorded, with corrected labeling requested.
What this demonstrates
- Checking dimensions against labels and shipping marks
- Looking for frame features that could damage upholstery
- Recording appearance and workmanship defects
- Separating observed findings from items needing further testing
Foam density and other technical properties require an agreed test method and suitable equipment; they should not be inferred from appearance alone.
