this is a perfect chair for what I needed:  I have a surgically repaired spine and need chairs that are firm and NOT deep - thus a small chair like this works very well for me and the small corner in the den where it fits perfectly (I measured and re-measured before I bought it).  And the color is EXACTLY what I thought it would be:  CHILE (or dark cinnamon) - not red - thank you to other reviewers who confirmed that.  It is very light weight (I put some non-slip rubber tips to keep it firm on the hardwood floor) and I am sure it will not last forever - but the price is very good so no complaints at all.  It's an accent chair and that's what you should expect.
