I was very worried about ordering online especially not being able to "sit" in it.  Well, let me tell you I am no longer worried.  This is VERY comfortable.  We are a family of five and everyone likes it.  Durable leather, nice color (same as pictured), the arm recline is very easy and not stiff.  We have had electrically and opted for the manual (glad we did).  Delivery was on time and set up was a breeze.  Highly recommend.
