Very easy to put together. I had some tools with me thinking I’d need them but nope. The back cushion bulges a little but it’s because of how they packaged and vacuum pack it but the recliner serves its purpose. The description said beige but it’s actually an off white color. Very soft and comfortable. It reclines far enough to sleep on. The foot rest doesn’t have too much padding but again… the chair serves its purpose for me.
