These chairs are beautiful - and just exactly what I wanted.  They were a breeze to put together, and they work like a charm.  The power buttons are great - and the USB is a bonus.  We love them and enjoy sitting in them.  Even though the back and the foot area work together - and are not independent of each other, you can lift the footrest and stop when it is up - without the back moving.  So it's a lot more flexible and functional than you might expect.  They are made well and are just gorgeous!
