I love the look of this chaise lounge. The legs in the photo look black but I was actually pleasantly surprised to discover they are walnuts brown. I purchased it to have a place to nap in my room without messing up my bed. The assembly was just easy but as other reviewers mentioned, the screw that attaches the backrest to the base is defective. The screw goes approximately 1/4th in and stops. It feels like it's cross threading but upon inspection it doesn't appear so. I solved this problem (maybe) by using a spacer from the hardware store. Im disappointed the assembly problems ruined my experience and makes me question long term quality of this chaise. Three stars, I don't think I would purchase again.
