This is very poorly designed. the bottom is lower than the back so you slide when you sit in it.  We had to put blocks under the front legs to correct the slant.   the back doesn't allow you to sit upright.  the top, while beautiful is very uncomfortable to rest you head against.  I ordered 2 and I am very happy we only assembled one first.  I returned the other.  I would have returned both but since we put it together and destroyed the packaging it would have been a little too difficult.  For this price point, I expected a lot better.
