The models EA 217 and EA 219 are the office swivel chairs in the Soft Pad Group by Charles and Ray Eames.‎ Their dignified aura makes them especially suited for management areas.‎ The extraordinary comfort of the chairs results from the combined effect of their tilt mechanism, which can be adjusted to the user's weight, and the soft upholstery.‎ The higher backrest of EA 219 distinguishes it from the Soft Pad Chair EA 217.‎

Material description
- Backrest and seat: EA 217 with medium-high backrest, EA 219 with high backrest.‎ Sewn-on cushions with polyurethane foam upholstery in Leather or Premium Leather (latter version with topstitching).‎ Side profiles and spreaders in die-cast aluminium, with a polished or chrome-plated finish or powder-coated in deep black.‎
- Seat mechanism: adjustable backward tilt, lockable in the forward position.‎ Continuous seat height adjustment with gas spring.‎
- Armrests: die-cast aluminium, with a polished or chrome-plated finish or powder-coated in deep black.‎

The design of the Soft Pad Group dates from the year 1969.‎ In terms of both construction and shape, the Soft Pad Chairs are similar to the design of the Aluminium Group.‎ However, their sewn-on cushions create a striking contrast to the slender aluminium profiles.‎ The Soft Pad Chairs are softer and more voluptuous than the chairs in the Aluminium Group, but without losing the clean clarity of their common silhouette.‎ The chairs adapt to the body of the sitter and provide extraordinary comfort.‎
Vitra has produced the Soft Pad chairs in the same superior quality for decades.‎ This experience allows us to offer a 30-year guarantee* on all of the models in the Soft Pad collection.‎
*In the event of a manufacturing or material defect, Vitra replaces or repairs all of the chair models in the Aluminium Group and Soft Pad Group free of charge for a period of 30 years from the date of purchase.‎ This is valid for chairs sold after 1 September 2003.‎ This guarantee excludes damage resulting from normal wear or improper use.‎ Your statutory rights concerning faulty products are not affected by this warranty.‎
