Had to replace my real leather chair and decided to go ahead and get the lift chair.  This chair looks every bit as good as the genuine leather leather old one.  One thing I have to say to previous revewers.  Since you you can stop the chair reclining anywhere, you can stop it at a position where your back is almost up while your feet are up also.       Only thing I would change.  A wireless remote.  But for the great price, I guess I'll deal with it.  Customer service was great.
