I'm delighted with this beautiful chair! I'd been looking everywhere for a sturdy, comfortable reclining chair for my mother who is recovering from a stroke and needed one with arms all the way to the front of it. I only found a couple and they were WAY too expensive. I was hesitant to buy one online without the ability to sit test it but the reviews kept me interested. Then I got on the chat feature of the website and did more research which reassured me. I was so convinced that I was willing to risk having to pay return shipping [$50] should the chair not live up to its online ratings.  I'm so glad I did!. It meets the needs my mother has for sturdiness, height and comfort and it's handsome styling eliminates any possibility of  'hospital room'....it fits right in with the rest of her decor.   I would definitely recommend this chair to others for quality, beauty and comfort.
