Could not be more EXACT to the idea we were expecting. Quality is fantastic. We have a fairly small apartment so my boyfriend is always concerned about stability of furniture to fit our space limitations and therefore always a harsh judge of quality. He's more thrilled than me with the chair! The packaging of the chair even exceeded expectations. It arrived with plastic straps securing the outside of the box and each component foam-wrapped individually to avoid damage while in transit. I would highly recommend this chair just for its versatility to fit any need/look/area of your home. We just purchased a dining table and chair set from Wayfair the next day because we were so happy with this purchase. Other companies should take note of Wayfair's overall care and quality in their products. Not something you often see anymore.
