I needed the chair for shoulder surgery recovery.  After shopping at the usual "big box" stores, I turned to Wayfair for something more affordable.    This chair was about 1/3 the price of comparable chairs in the stores and worth the savings even though you have to assemble this chair.  The fabric isn't the best and the color selections are limited.  But the chair's massage, heat, recline and lift operation works perfectly.  The chair was purchased for my recovery but my husband has decided it is so comfortable that he is a frequent user, too and has decided to get rid of a sofa and purchase 2 recliners after sitting in this one.
