I love this recliner! It just came in yesterday. It was super simple to "assemble." It is very comfortable and the breathable leather seems like it will be durable. I think it is a perfect lady-sized recliner, but my husband said it was comfortable for him also. Update - I've had it a couple of weeks now and still find it a very comfortable and good quality chair. I'm trying to convince my husband that we need another one in the living room to take the place of a bulky older recliner that no one ever sits in.
