I purchased two of these beautiful chairs, appears to be well made.  Nice rich brown, not the reddish type of brown.  Older people might need to be a little careful as the chair rocks and swivels when attempting to sit down, just be a bit more cautious.  A shorter person 5'2" may need a stool for the feet when not reclining to feel a bit more comfortable, as the seat is pretty deep.  Also, a pillow behind the back is more comfortable when sitting upright.  Most reclining chairs these days seem to be made with a deeper curve on the back piece for some reason.  My previous chair also required a cushion for the lower back. Delivery was fast, just a couple of days.  The boxes they came in were a mess, even a slit down one side, but the chairs were amazingly not damaged.
