I purchased this in robins egg after reading the reviews. pls pay attention to reviews on this chair. It IS hard, needs a less strong spring, it IS narrow, and at 5'3 my feet don't touch the floor when sitting back in the chair. however, it does fit the style, color, pattern, size for what I needed and hopefully it will soften with use. the bonus I found is that you unzip the bottom to put the legs on so I simply used right angle brackets and plywood and have a storage place for out of season decorative pillows, etc. I just wish it was more comfortable but then I wasn't expecting perfect for the price. good little chair.
