'Hairy' print

Hi, I am printing small chairs for an art object. But the prints are very 'hairy' as the image shows.
The single chair image is what it should look like all though it is also not perfect.
I have tried various settings but nothing really improves the prints. As far as I know it seems an extrusion problem. I am using an Ultimaker2 , filament is PLA white from FormFutura which normally prints fine. I have cleaned the nozzle several times with the atomic solution.

I would be happy to receive some tips to improve these prints.

Yes, I did read it and tried all suggestions, no result, the result stays the same. Strange to me is that the seats of the chairs are printed nicely, but the feet are quit malformed. Any other suggestions?

Thanks in advance...

If you truly tried all those settings and saw no difference, then you're definitely doing something wrong. Several of those settings are quite powerful and would cause a large impact to the print. For example, if you adjust some of them too far, eventually the main part would even start to be affected.
