I received the Big Joe Chair for free to review from #Influenster.  I need you to know that this chair is HUGE! The box was enormous, and it took two of us to stuff the inserts into the chair. The vegan leather cover is very soft, attractive and looks good in a variety of settings.  The chair was super firm at first, but softened up with time, as the instructions say it will. My family loved sitting in this chair, and one cat even claimed it as her new bed, but it was too large to remain in our living room. I took it to my school counseling office and it fits well in the space, and will allow my students to relax if needed.  NOTE: Because it is HUGE, it was difficult for me to carry alone, and I had some difficulty getting it through doorways. This is why I have it 4 stars instead of 5. But if you are looking for HUGE, this is the chair for you!
