The chair is great! Looks very similar to the Pottery Barn version. It is a little firm, but we prefer that so that it is easier to get in and out. The recliner works great- you can hardly see the glider piece underneath. Our only complaint is that the wing pieces did not slide all the way down to the arms. It doesn't effect the function, so it doesn't bother us. We are doing an elephant theme for the nursery so this compliments well :)
