Great SlipcoverI have had this slipcover in white for close to a year. It wears well. I have washed it a couple of times. I let it air dry and it goes back on to the chair without needing any ironing. I love it!

Beautiful slipcoversI ordered three of these slipcovers, in Everyday Linen Spa, to fit my non-Ballard Parsons counter stools and they look great. The dimensions listed are exact and the color is very pretty. The quality is fantastic. I'm quite sure you couldn't find this quality elsewhere, or even make them, for the price in the catalog.

wonderfulI bought these for some existing chairs and the fit was great. The color was more tan than off white to white like I thought thet would be. Ruffle is cute and fabric is really nice.

Best Slipcover!These just came today. I ordered 6 in the small black check pattern. They are PERFECT! The color is black and cream. The check isn't too small and they fit my chairs nicely and my chairs are not a Ballard chair. I plan to order 6 more in a solid color so I can switch them when I want. Worth every penny!

Wow! I ordered a second set of 8.A few years ago I ordered them in a light blue twill and I was so pleased with them that I ordered another set of 8 in a neutral linen. I am now free to mix and match. They are well made, fit great, and I couldn't possibly make them for the price. The pleated is style is so signature. I just love them. There is undoubtedly another set of them somewhere in my design future!

Well-made slipcoverNicely made out of a heavy weight fabric - great for a monogram. Bought it for a non-Ballard chair - dimensions given were reliable and it fit great!

Great slipcoverI ordered this slipcover for a Parsons chair that I already own. It actually fit my chair despite being from a different company and looks great. I love the pleating along the bottom and fits perfectly!

Love the Pleated Couture SlipcoversI ordered the Couture Chair with a pleated Butter Twill slipcover to use as an accent chair in my bedroom. I love the quality and style so much that I ordered another pleated slipcover in Crimson. I frequently rotate my bedroom linens and the Couture Chair slipcovers are the perfect compliment for my decorating needs.

Couture Chair Slipcovers Work Well!!This is the second set of Couture Chair pleated slipcovers that we’ve purchased from Ballard. Our first pr is still in action (4 years) and holding up well to stop stains from staining the cushions of our chairs, especially when grandkids are sitting on our chairs to dine. We purchased this second set to cover two new couture chairs that are due to arrive in a few days. Full disclosure; we found that these covers can shrink if not hung dry and then stretched while damp after washing. Overall a great product.

Good ValueVery nice slip covers for parson chairs. My chairs are from Pottery Barn, not Ballard, so the covers don't fit perfectly. I will need to tailor them somewhat so that they lay flat. But the fabric quality is very good and, compared to other slipcovers - even those from Ballard - these are a good value.

Very nicely madeThis slipcover was the exact color and look that I wanted. The only reason for 4 stars is that it was hard to get on the chair. I realize that it needs to fit well, but it took some serious wrestling to get it over the front corners! Other than that, it is beautifully made and I'm glad I got them.

Lovely cover, but color not what it appearedI am happy with the chair covers, they fit my Pier 1 chairs well, however the Apple Velvet is not what it appears on the screen. I tested this on several screens and the fabric appears to be a bright green, which is what I wanted. The actual Apple Velvet is far more olive, dusky colored. They will still work with my room and I love the look of the pleats, but the color is not at all what I expected. I also need to figure out a way to secure the seat part to the chair as they slide off when anyone sits.

DirtyI ordered the super white and they were dirty when I got them. Must have been there from the manufacturer because the packaging was very good. I also notice there were a few black threads in the fabric. I was able to remove them with sewing tools and tweezers, but it was not easy. Overall the fit they chair nice, but not as perfect as the picture. You still get wrinkles and pulling in areas.

Great concept; dull colorI've had my Ballard chairs for over 10 years. Changing the slipcovers is an inexpensive way to redecorate. This time I replaced cream velvet covers (which drape beautifully) with cotton "Courtney Spa" fabric. It was surprisingly dull; the background is more beige than cream and the blues/greens muted. The seams where the chair seat meets the chair back also seem "tight" and don't tuck into the crease of the chair nicely the way the velvet did. To customers: get the fabric swatches first. To Ballard: offer more prints in the cache of stock fabrics not just Courtney Spa.

Didn’t stand up to wearWe bought these a year ago for our kitchen chairs and they looked nice at the beginning but really did not stand up. Washing them makes the navy fade. Cat hair seems to be attracted to the twill. They generally look shabby, We are not hard on them—just 2 adults in the house. I am sure they are fine for a place without much use.

Does not fit chairI love these, but the back is not long enough! The back of the chair sticks out. I borrowed my daughter’s velvet chair covers from Ballard, and they fit perfectly. I ordered more material to add to the top of the back, but I can’t get it to look right. It’s been a thorn in my side.

Does not fitWhen installing the slipcovers on the chairs we were very disappointed by the outcome. Given the extraordinarily tight fit of all of the slipcovers the seams pulled in multiple places. In addition, there is no way to pull the seat portion of the slipcover over the seat and the top of the chair legs without damaging the seams. It appears that the slipcovers were not made to fit the chair appropriately. The fabric is pulled so tightly the skirt on the chair does not lay correctly, nor does it fit the back correctly without pulling. Most concerning is that the seams are pulled from the installation alone because the slip cover is so tight.
