While I like the chair in general, the material leaves a lot to be desired. I have only had it maybe a month, and the upholstery is coming apart and looks horrible like I have had it for years. Also, the reclining part does not stay up for your legs if any real weight is put on it. If you have it reclined and your legs are propped up and say a dog or cat hops up there, the leg part will drop and fold up.
