I bought two of these recliners.  They are beautiful & exactly as portrayed in the photos.  Top quality full grain leather.  I knew this right away when we opened the boxes & that wonderful, unmistakable "real leather" smell filled the room.  The feet & legs had to be put on, but it was straightforward & easy.  I only wish there was a matching sofa.  If you're considering this recliner, buy it.  You will not be disappointed!!
