    Frequently Asked Questions

    How long is my warranty?

    The standard warranty for True Innovations products is one year from the original date of purchase, and covers replacement cushions and parts.    Other warranty periods may apply based on the actual product purchased, and you should consult the assembly instructions that came with your product to confirm.  For specific inquiries, please contact our customer service department. Please note that proof of purchase is required for validation of warranty.

    What is the weight limit on my chair?

    All of our chairs have been tested to meet BIFMA standards. Our chairs have a weight limit of up to 275 lbs, unless stated otherwise. Please refer to your warranty sheet for the weight limit on your chair.

    How do I remove/replace the seat plate and/or gas lift?

    We have two YouTube videos available for gas lifts removal instructions.

    To remove the seat plate from the gas lift: you will need to turn your chair over.  Next, get a hammer.  You will want to hit around the area that the gas lift (Cylinder) goes inside the seat plate (The black metal plate attached to the seat that has a handle and a knob).  After you hit the seat plate, give the gas lift a pull and see if it is coming loose.  These two items are locked together by pressure; the more you hit the seat plate the more pressure will be released. Eventually the two items will separate. To remove the gas lift from the five star base:  please turn the chair upside down. There are about one to two inches where the gas lift (Cylinder) goes through the 5 star base (The legs with wheels).   Next, grab a hammer.  Then, if you look in the center of the gas lift, there is a little clip. You DO NOT want to hit the clip in the middle as it will release the pressure needed in order to raise or lower your chair. You will want to hit the outer edge or the rim of the gas lift.   The more you hit the gas lift the more pressure will be released.  After you give the gas lifts a few hits, it should come right out, or give it a pull and see if it’s loose.  If it still won’t budge, give us a call or feel free to email us at SERVICE@Trueinnovations.COM.

    I forgot to put the telescoping cover on my chair. How do I put this on my chair?

    The telescoping cover is only a cosmetic piece to cover the gas lift. It will not affect the functioning of your chair. If you would like to remove the gas lift to put the telescoping cover on, please refer to the gas lift removal instructions.

    Can I purchase a chair from True Innovations directly?

    True Innovations does not sell products directly to the public. We are a manufacturer and only sell items to retailers on a direct import basis.

    Can I lock my chair in the reclining position?

    Some model chairs can lock in the recline position, but some will only lock in the upright position. Please consult your assembly instructions to confirm.

    How do I get the casters to stay in the base?

    The metal stem needs to be fully inserted into the bottom of the five star base in order for the caster to stay in. There are two options. One: lay the base on the carpeted ground, with the bottom of the base facing upward. Insert each caster into the hole by applying pressure. They should pop in easily. Option two: hold the 5 star base in an upright position (One leg is on a carpeted floor). Insert each caster into the hole. Apply pressure with one hand, while using the other to hold the base in place.

    Where are my parts? When am I going to receive them?

    Please email or call customer service for your tracking information. Please have your confirmation number ready.

    Am I supposed to keep the spacer on the bottom of my seat cushion?

    Yes, please do not remove the spacer. Spacers keep the front of the chair from tilting downward. There should only be one spacer positioned on the bottom of the seat cushion. Not all chairs require a spacer for assembly, check your assembly instructions if you are unsure.

    Should the clip at the bottom of the gas lift be removed?

    No, the clip needs to remain on the gas lift. Removing this clip will inhibit the gas lifts functions and void the warranty of the gas lift.

    What is bonded leather?

    Bonded leather is a manufactured leather-fiber material with specific properties that make it look like leather. Bonded leather is manufactured using genuine recycled leather fiber from factories and tanneries. Recycling these manufacturing byproducts represents an important contribution to the conservation of natural resources and as a result, bonded leather is referred to as an environmentally friendly material.

    How do I get my chair to tilt?

    If you are sitting in your chair and it is “Locked”, please follow these steps.  If your seat plate has one handle: Step one: sit in the chair, and grasp the handle with your right hand. Pull the handle away from the chair (It will come out about an inch), and recline. Step two: If the chair is unlocked, but is still not reclining, reach under the seat cushion, and turn the knob to the right to loosen the tension. This should allow your chair to lean back. If your seat plate has two handles: Step one: make sure the handle on the left is pulled out away from the chair (It will come out about an inch). Try to lean back.  If this does not solve the problem, please follow step two above.

    If your chair has two cable controlled seat plate levers (mounted on the right and left side underneath the seat cushion).  While seated, reach down to the lever on the left side of the chair and push down to unlock the recline function.  Pull up on the lever to lock the chair in upright position.

    Please consult your assembly instructions for additional types of seat plate controls on various model chairs.

    How should the chair be cleaned?

    While we do not recommend a particular cleaning product, you can use a damp cloth to wipe down your chair. Furniture stores should be able to recommend a product that is safe for the particular material on your chair. If you would like to use a cleaning product, we suggest that you test the product on the bottom side of the seat cushion first to make sure the product doesn’t alter the material, before applying the product on the entire chair. Please note that any type of discoloration or alteration made to the chair from a cleaner will automatically void the warranty.

    Where do I find the P.O. number, model number or item number?

    For seating; the PO/model/item number is located on a sticker underneath the seat cushion.  For upholstered furniture such as sofas, loveseats, and recliners; The PO/item number is typically located on the underside of the item.

    QUESTIONS RELATED TO ASSEMBLY:

    How do I Connect my gas lift to my chair?

    How do I put the telescoping cover on the gas lift?

    The telescoping cover is placed directly over the top of the gas lift. The smaller piece is put on first followed by each larger piece.

    Please refer to the label posted on the inside of the box for the hardware location. The hardware pack will typically be labeled or will have a red hardware streamer attached for your easy location.
