What a great chair!  It is not at all bulky like some of the recliners out there and a great value for the price.  So simple to put together-the back just slides  on, but you may need some help in lining up the rails.  Very soft and buttery feel and the stitching is beautiful!  It is a paler color than what was showing on my monitor but I am happier.  Though I liked what I thought was the darker version, this is more neutral  but still has a yellow tint-more like the color of butter.  I was reluctant but finally decided to take the plunge and ordered it and I am so glad I did!
