I had previously purchased the recliner cover and had received a new one for Thanksgiving. When I went to put it on the recliner after unpacking it today, I discovered that one of the armsthe one where your hand would rest at the hemmed portionwas broken. Probably two to three inches, tapering to a fabric hem that appears to be the backing material of about an inch. Since I need this cover for the upcoming week, I won't be returning it. I felt let down. My other ones haven't experienced this problem. This was probably an isolated incident that eluded quality control. I still think highly of these covers.
