I love this chair.  I had been searching for over a year for a chair for the corner of my bedroom and this chair fit the bill.  The color is gray with a slight tweed look to it.  It is made well and was easy to assemble.  It was packaged well when it was shipped. As for comfort, it is not a chair that we sit in for more than a minute or two a day, but I would say that it might need a small pillow behind you for good back support if you were to sit for any length of time. I would definitely recommend this chair.
