Pretty true to size maybe a little in the bigger side but with some extra tucking that can be remedied. The color is amazing like a deep sap berry maroon color. I am very happy with the purchase it makes a fun and easy change to brighten a room!
EDIT!!! - I got these https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B075JB16XB/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o01_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 and they make a lot of difference in how well my slip cover fits! Well, and they were really inexpensive.
As I am using these JUST to smooth out wrinkles on sides and back of slip cover, there really isn't the PULLING or TENSION there would be from someone getting up and down. The FRONT part of the slip cover actually looked quite good. AND THE VELCRO on the slip cover meant for around the legs, works MUCH better used intertwined around these straps! The velcro was really doing nothing til I pulled them and looped through these fasteners at the bottom of the chair.
SO....if you need something to take up the slack on the sides or back, these hook from underneath and have made a big difference!

I got this because I bought an old, but in relatively good shape, wing back chair from my neighbors who were moving (for FIVE BUCKS, couldn't pass that up).
I think they had had it stored in a shed. But cleaned it up and it has good "bones" and figured I would just slip cover it.
My décor is mostly gray, black and with white walls so I chose the gray (which I think of as a medium gray, it's definitely not charcoal and not a really LIGHT gray).
PROS:
COST: This was a biggie. I only spent five on the chair and I didn't want to spend a fortune to cover it and got this when it was 29.99 and the reviews were mostly good, so I am very happy with the price.
EASE OF PUTTING IT ON: MUCH easier than I anticipated, yes, you have to adjust, tuck in here or there, but it's like a fitted sheet only fitted for a wing chair. There are seams here and there and I could quickly see where the "wing" tips of the back go, where the seams were for the arms, etc.
FIT: OK, I will likely be getting mattress straps for under the chair because the elastic for the legs to hold down won't stretch it enough and the back and sides look a bit like wrinkled elephant skin (I chose the gray :-).
Because I have an older wing back, the arms are shorter than most of the newer ones, but even if they were bigger, there are areas that I can't see being absolutely perfect on most wing backs unless you pin it in place. There are SEAMS for arms, back, cushion.
BUT I don't really care if it's obvious the chair is slip covered, many people do that and it never looks EXACTLY like it was SEWN to the piece of furniture. It looks almost perfect from the front, it's more the back and sides and I will get those mattress straps to use UNDER the chair to pull the fabric a bit tighter and I think that will help. The elastic leg straps aren't doing much.
FEEL: VERY soft. The original fabric underneath is a pretty velour type fabric, like a microfiber, but kind of stuff and itchy. THIS IS VERY SOFT and I'm particular.
DURABILITY: Can't speak to that yet. I haven't washed it and I just put it on today. Because of the seams and the relative thinness, I would be careful how much you REALLY tug at the seams.
STAY PUT?: EDIT: I DO have to adjust it. It doesn't pull completely out, but after a guest sat in it for about an hour, one of the foam tubes just came to the surface and there it was, on the chair. I don't use it a lot, don't have kids and my dog jumps on my bed, not chairs, so it's more for company and if I'm reading in the sitting room. EVEN that little use, well, those tubes are pretty useless, but it does stay pretty well and I just tuck in a bit after getting up. I am trying to figure out something HEAVIER that won't tear at the fairly delicate fabric and help keep it more in place, but not a biggie for my minimal use.
For now, at least it matches the rest of my sitting room furniture, it's soft to sit on and all total with buying this well-made wing chair, fabric cleaner to get the dust and grime off, and cover, I spent a little over $40 instead of likely $400 for a new wing chair!
My chair is an old antique chair and the size of the modern Wing Chairs seems to be bigger. But I got it all tucked in and stretched to make it fit. I am very pleased so far. Now I have to wait and see how it will be using the chair with the new slipcover on.
I have looking at chair covers for a while and after reading through reviews, I chose these and they are just what I was looking for and needing for my chairs that were not colors that go with me decor. Perfect and easy fix!
I have both leather and velour furniture that I use to cover. This review is for the fabric (velour) chair that my cat likes and she no longer scratches it. I used to have plastic but it was not comfortable or practical. I had to shift when I wanted to sit and if I forgot to fix it back my cat would scratch. Now I don't have to remember to fix anything back. It is also stretchy so it conforms to most chair shapes, machine washable and comes with pieces that help keep the cover in place. I also like that when I sit down the areas where I tucked the cover into the sofa it stays put. It does not stay put as well on leather.
I inherited a beautiful wing chair from my parents, and I priced having it reupholstered...$400.00? As a result, it has been in storage for several years. We have recently redecorated our lower level in navy and white with barn wood gray flooring. I have been researching slipcovers and thought they would look like, well, slipcovers. Boy, was I wrong! This cover has brought new life to an otherwise dormant keepsake; I love the fit and navy fabric! And the price? One-tenth of reupholstery!
Pros: Great fit, soft, looks very good, great value for the money. Best fitting slipcover I've ever bought! Keeping it.
Cons: "Natural" color looks like very light yellow. Not sure the cover will be durable. Velcro on bottom corners elastic did not overlap enough so I ended up tying the elastic. Weird considering the fit of the slipcover was tight overall.
WORST CON: "BACK" is marked with a bright red tag on the OUTSIDE of the cover. Fine if your chair is up against a wall but not if it's floating away from a wall. Clip it, right? That would leave a red line. So I ended up carefully picking open the seam, removing the tag completely, then sewing the seam back together. A pain even for someone with mad hot sewing skills.
VERDICT: Still a great deal!
I like this slip cover. I would describe the color as cranberry. It coordinates with some cranberry toile accents in the room. I am actually using it on an aged reclining wing back chair in my living room which had become pretty unsightly. I keep the bottom front elastic/velcro straps unattached and the cover over the footrest rolled up to allow the chair to recline. I can easily roll the cover back down and the chair is again fully covered. I was surprised at how easily white American Bulldog hair can be removed from the cover after my big girl lounged on the chair one day. I plan a renovation in the future at which time I may recover the chair, but no rush now that the chair is neat and comfy. Happy improvement at a low price. I will probably purchase one for another chair that does not recline.
