A very nice chair .Looks and feels like real leather, nice brown color. Actually needs two people to put the chair together, and with 2 people it becomes easier to put together. It is suppose to hold 300 +lbs., it probably does but the side arms is quite tight for anyone weighing that weight, so to accommodate that issue, it is suggested that you don't screw the side screws too tight to the seat. 
In any event, a great chair that also reclines!!!
