We purchased this recliner for our nursery and it has been a perfect match for us. The color is more of an off-whitegrey, which makes it very versatile to coordinate with any room. My husband and I have had several nights sleeping in the chair while completely reclined, and have no complaints. Its not so soft that you sink in, but just enough firmness to provide support. The swivel is the extra bonus! It makes for easy reaching for close by items. It was difficult to find a chair that rocks, reclines and swivels, especially for the price. I would buy this recliner all over again, and highly recommend it, even if its not for a nursery.
