Just as the Queen of England’s furniture comes with a hook for her purse, do Madigan Chairs come with a pocket for a Golden Delicious or Honeycrisp and required cutlery?
This chair, which few will find attractive, will dominate any room in which you place it. It is incredibly endurable and will withstand years of abuse.
Review from Amazon shopper Carhartbillionaire - Zero stars — I got this chair for the sitting room of my 6th house — almost immediately this chair caused the plumbing system in the house to emit dirty water. The chair caused the electricity to malfunction. All the food cooked in the house after we purchased this chair was rancid and fattening. $1,000 bottles of wine tasted like Hi-C. The clocks started running backwards. All because of this chair.
Designed to enhance your size and stature for the petit leader.
Wait. The Speaker is short? Seriously never thought of him as short. Does he only stand near other people of small stature. Apparently I’ve never seen him standing by Rob Uhe for comparison purposes.

That chair is clearly a very young 76 years old.

For those uncultured, it’s pronounced “Ack-sent” chair in “Shi-Cog-O”. Make sure to look up customer reviews by T. Soprano and others.
