I saw video demonstration of this exact folding chair at least five or six years ago. Why is it only now coming out on the market?

Looks good, right?
Well we have one at my office. It\'s the model of a fun idea but totally useless: you can\'t really get it to hold in any position, it will slowly move. It\'s terribly incomfortable, and the surface keeps deep butt marks, even if we barely used it at all.
It\'s mostly embarassing to see it around, we\'re constantly thinking \"how did we get to buy this crap??\"

Gavrilo, could you feed some bendy wire through the hole under the main seat part? This might help to keep the shape. Maybe some foam cushions to sit on may help with the butt marks. I guess the cardboard in the concertina is too thin. Thicker card with fewer layers would be a better way of construction.

I got a hat made like this for my birthday once. It was pretty cool. Until I took it off (because it was kind of uncomfortable) and discovered dozens of papercuts all around my head. Not anticipating enjoying the chair version.

U can\'t say it\'s brand new. It have been saled in France for a couple of years already...

We are writting from Flexiblelove LTD in London. We now perfectly who´s comment about our Flexiblelove chair trying to harm us. We are lucky, because we only have one costumer unhappy but a 1000 enjoying the chair. Flexiblelove is a well know company worldwide. We participate in trade shows as Birmigham Interiors and Gran Designs live (London). Also we have participated in Milan Show, Paris, Madrid, Tokio....etc. As a sample, i do post the translation from the magazine which can be follow by this link. http://www.hfb.dk/index.php?id=172&tx_ttnews[year]=2009&tx_ttnews[month]=10&tx_ttnews[tt_news]=1313&tx_ttnews[backPid]=157&cHash=9f9db125e2 They report about our Booth in Valencia International Furniture Show. "But it convinced us immediately that it was not a bilge! "The stability was surprisingly good and the most fantastic thing is that the form was totally arbitrary: wavy or straight; about columns and objects, as a sculpture, etc." "During the cocktail offered on the 22nd there was the FL Earth 16, since it is called the seat, his acid test: they placed about the columns of the lounge and were very used by the hundreds of guests without other damages had that some modest signs of pressure" Obviously we can not probe all this online, it's quite difficult to feel the touch of the chair, how it moves, what the people feels about it. But in flexiblelove we knew that, that's why we record videos on the street, last week end in London.....(will be on our youtube channel soon ) On those videos, you will see how it works and how do the people think about the chair.... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WKs23hXEQjU Flexiblelove has been also on some realities like Big Brother, used for 5 months like the only seats on the living room..... Our chairs has been also selected by Issey Miyaki for the presentation of his new campaign in Hong Kong, also flexible love has been presented in Arco one of the best art fairs worldwide.
From here we also want to invite readers to contact us if you have any other question. See you in Gran Design Live London!!!!!

We just got this for our office. Cool looking, but no matter how hard we stretch it, it zips back to being about 3 feet wide. We are contemplating putting 6 people on it for a whole day to see if it stays. I'm not sure why ours is so different from the ones in the video.
