Be careful putting together! Even though the recliner only has 2 pieces (the back and base) the back didn't slide into the rails of the base well at all and is now stuck where we can't get it off. The right side now is too close to the arm of the chair and the left is too far. It is still usable but doesn't look as nice as it could have. For the price I am pretty satisfied with the power recliner/glider/swivel overall. 
This is a firm sit as well.
