I bought a clear Poly chair from the Karim Rashid store in Chelsea after hearing the sales lady explain how the chair's plastic technology was "many generations ahead of Phillipe Starck's plastic furniture, much stronger and lighter". A few weeks after I bought it I was sitting in it working at my desk and the seat broke in a straight line from the little hole from back of seat to the front of the seat, a clean break. I weigh 115 pounds and i was using the chair in the manner for which it was built and it BROKE. I called the store to tell them what happened and the woman (his sister I believe) was incredibly rude and didn't offer any compensation in any form, saying it wasn't her problem because I had bought it on sale and the break happened more than two weeks after I had bought it. I had to throw that $375 piece of plastic in the trash where it belongs. Careful anyone who sits in that tub, it might leak or just shatter into a zillion pieces. hey the hot bath water might melt whatever it's made of. and don't expect any customer service after the fact either, just a whole lot of aggression and rudeness.
