Description
The Elow brings a strong olive green accent to a room without taking one over. At 68.5 cm wide and 65 cm deep it holds a corner or a bedside gap, and the 69 cm overall height keeps sightlines open across a bedroom. A padded seat sits over a reinforced internal frame on metal legs, and the chair weighs 13.0 kg, so one person can move it to clean behind.
Where 68.5 cm of olive green fits
68.5 W × 65 D × 69 H cm
Under 70 cm in every direction, the Elow reads as an accent chair rather than a second sofa. Allow about 80 cm of wall so the arms are not pressed against a skirting board or a wardrobe door, and keep roughly 40 cm clear in front for legs.
At 69 cm tall the back finishes lower than a dining chair back, which is the reason this one works in a corner where a high-backed chair would close the room in.
A low, open lounge posture
The Elow is built around a padded seat and a back that finishes at 69 cm from the floor — around shoulder height for a seated adult rather than head height. That is a relaxed, conversational posture rather than a reclining one, and it suits a chapter of a book or a morning coffee.
The 65 cm depth gives a genuine seat rather than a perch, and the fixed arms on both sides give you somewhere to rest a forearm and something to push against when standing. If you want more upper-back support, one scatter cushion changes the geometry without changing the footprint.
Fabric over a metal leg structure
The Elow is upholstered in fabric in olive green, over a reinforced internal frame, and stands on a metal leg support structure. Olive is a mid-depth tone, so everyday marks show far less than they would on a pale chair, but it is a dyed fabric and direct all-day sun will lift any colour over time — keep it off a north-facing window line if you can.

Assembly & delivery
The Elow ships flat in one carton measuring 65 × 51 × 66 cm at 15.0 kg, and assembly is required — in practice that is fitting the metal legs to the upholstered body. One person can manage the carton, and a near-cube box of that size clears a standard doorway and a stairwell turn without drama. Most orders ship the next business day, and we deliver nationwide across New Zealand.
A reading corner in the main bedroom
A reading corner in the main bedroom is where the Elow's numbers work: 68.5 cm wide and 65 cm deep, it holds a corner without crowding a bedside table, and at 13.0 kg one person can shift it to vacuum. The trade-off is the 69 cm overall height — the back finishes near shoulder level, so there is no head support for long evenings. Allow 80 cm of wall.
How much wall space does the 68.5 cm wide Elow olive green armchair need in a reading corner?
Eighty centimetres of clear wall is the working number for the Elow: the chair itself measures 68.5 cm across, and the extra margin stops the arms rubbing a skirting board, a wardrobe door swing or a curtain fall. Depth is 65 cm, so add roughly 40 cm in front for legs. Measure both before you commit a corner to it.
Does the olive green Elow armchair at 69 cm tall support your head?
Sixty-nine centimetres is the full floor-to-back height of the Elow, which puts the top edge near shoulder level for a seated adult. That low line is deliberate — it keeps a bedroom feeling open and lets the olive green read as an accent rather than a wall of colour. For longer sessions, add a scatter cushion behind the shoulders.
What are the legs on the olive green Elow armchair made from, and is 13.0 kg easy to move?
Metal legs carry the Elow, fixed to a reinforced internal frame under the fabric upholstery. Total weight is 13.0 kg, which is light for a full lounge seat — one adult can lift it clear to vacuum, or slide it to a new corner without a second pair of hands. Use felt pads if you are moving it often over timber.
Is there assembly in the 65 × 51 × 66 cm Elow olive green carton?
Assembly is required, and the single 65 × 51 × 66 cm carton at 15.0 kg contains the upholstered body with the metal legs packed separately. It is a legs-on job rather than a frame build, so a screwdriver and a clear patch of floor are enough. The near-cube carton clears standard doorways, which matters for an upstairs bedroom.
How deep is the seat on the 65 cm deep olive green Elow armchair?
Sixty-five centimetres is the overall depth of the Elow, and the usable seat sits inside that once the back padding is accounted for. That is a real sitting depth rather than a perch, so most adults can settle back rather than balance on the front edge. Shorter users may prefer a cushion behind the lower back.
Does the olive green Elow suit a guest room as well as a lounge?
A guest room is a fair second home for the Elow, because the 68.5 × 65 cm footprint fits beside a bed or under a window where a full armchair would block the walking line. Olive green is a mid-depth tone that hides everyday marks better than a pale fabric. At 13.0 kg it also moves out easily when the room is needed for something else.
