I love this chair. I read a lot of the reviews about the puffiness. I love it. It’s not great laying flat, but I want it just for the slight angle and it seems perfect with the footstool. It is firm, but I like it especially for times eating at a TV tray. The material is soft and perfect light dark brown color you see with suede. We’re small people in the house all under 5’8 and for us it’s perfect.
