We were pleasantly surprised by the quality of this chair. Looks just as pictured. It is well padded and swivels smoothly. The swivel mechanism is covered with matching vinyl  for a nice finish. I was afraid it would be too large for our living room but it fits perfectly. It is not a large chair. It looks a little small for my husband but he said it feels fine. I am considering buying a second. The brown is dark but definitely brown. We haven't had it long so can't say how well it will hold up. The padding on the arms and seat seem full and feel like it will hold up.

Pros: Great value, well made, good size if in a smaller area.
Cons: May be too small for a large person.
