So far I really like this chair. Some tips: it is very large--a true chair-and-a-half.  The upholstery I chose was pretty heavy duty (devon gray) which I like versus something that will pick up dirt; since it's more like chenille it should be easy to brush clean. The stitching on the slipcover is really well made. And will the seat is medium, it's neither saggy nor stiff. BTW, my dog took to it right away if that tells you anything.
