This chair is a lovely, light dove grey fabric that is easy care. In other words, it may be cleaned according to manufacturer's directions. It is perfect for a smaller space, and is comfortable for a smaller person. I purchased it for my 85 year old mother, who is 5' 2". The price point is very reasonable. The only negative was the assembly. Although it was only two bolts, it took two of us to get the alignment right. The screws are also located in a difficult to reach underside of the chair. Once we got the mechanics out of the way, we really found the chair to be great.
