The dimensions are accurate, but it's definitely smaller than we were imagining it'd be. That said, it's actually the perfect size for the corner spot in our living room! Size aside, it's an attractive and comfortable chair. It doesn't get used very often so it should hold up pretty well... we put a cool black and white pouf with it for an ottoman and threw a furry pillow on it to dress it up... it all looks great with the coloring of the chair!
