I really love this chair! Beautiful and classy recliner takes up minimal space, especially compared to the conventional recliner. Color is perfect. Not too dark and not too light. Beautiful wooden bases on both the chair and the ottoman. My littlest dog thinks I got the ottoman just for her. Very soft, smooth and comfortable. When I retire one of my other recliners I will be replacing it with another chair like this. Assembly instructions recommend 2 people for assembly. I assembled by myself using one of my other chairs as my other person on the first step, but was simple for the other few steps that only one person is needed. I highly recommend this chair if youre looking for a sleekly designed chair that is sure to compliment whatever style of furniture it is paired with
