At The Chair Group, we’ve taken a different approach to help you find the perfect seating. Instead of a traditional showroom, we offer the "bum test," allowing you to fully experience the comfort and fit of our chairs in your own space. Here’s why we believe it’s the best way to choose your seating.
Try It Where It Matters
The bum test lets you experience our chairs in the exact space where you’ll use them—your home. Whether it’s your dining room or kitchen island, a showroom can’t replicate the lighting, decor, and overall atmosphere of your personal space. By testing the chair at home, you can also check if the heights and widths align perfectly with your existing furniture, ensuring it complements your unique environment in terms of both comfort and style.
Comfort Is Personal
Comfort is highly subjective, and a quick sit in a showroom won’t compare to experiencing it at your own pace. With the bum test, you can test the seat depth, backrest angle, —all without any rush or pressure. This ensures you find the chair that’s genuinely comfortable for you.
The Whole Package
We also provide free fabric samples and wood swatches so you can see them against your existing furnishings for a harmonious feel.
With thousands of fabrics from the most prestigious UK fabric houses, we help you find the ideal match for your chairs. Whether you prefer luxurious velvets, durable leathers, strong wool or sumptuous linens, your design advisor will guide you through the options to suit both style and practicality. It's a great idea to order your fabric samples ahead of your Bum Test so you can see your vision come together on the day.
