My husband was concerned about my purchasing recliners without sitting in them first. I was determined to get 2 matching chairs that were recliner/ rockers and swiveled. And I wanted a dark gray. There were few to be found anywhere I looked. I took a chance and ordered these. They arrived a week earlier than promised and were easily put together by my 67 yo husband while I was at work. They are a beautiful color, so soft and recline almost flat as well as swivel and rock. Did I mention they were on sale? I am so happy I didn't listen to my husband and so is he !  :)
