This recliner is exactly what I had imagined. The color is great, it is the perfect size and the backrest is big enough for anyone that is tall. I was concerned about it making noise due to prior reviews but so far I have not experienced any noises. The glider is spacious and the perfect combination of comfortable and sturdy. I am only giving 4 stars because our baby hasn't been born yet so I can't comment on how comfortable it is in that aspect but I am very happy with the purchase so far and the fact that it was very affordable!!
