When I first received this chair I was a little disappointed that the color seems to be more of a blue gray, than a true gray color, making it not match too well with my other furniture in the room, but.....
It was very easy to assemble by myself in just a few minutes.
As I’ve “lived” with the chair it has really grown in me despite the color. It is very comfortable to sit in, easy to open and close, and isn’t super bulky like some recliners. The swivel is a 
plus!
