The chair is nicely upholstered.  Lighter in color than anticipated but I took that chance.  The seat fits my body frame which is what I was looking for.  The lever to raise the leg support is odd.  And odder yet and a problem for me is how you collapse the leg rest.  I am elderly and do not have the strength in my legs to push the leg rest back into place.  I am still working on how to do that.
