As described - only better in real life !  looks great in our tiny flat as the dimensions are just right. Its firm and well made - which is what I wanted as its my hubby's chair and he's a big chap weighing 17 st so I didnt want to worry about cushions being soft and getting squashy. The colour is great - the purples match my heather and lavender decor. The price is good too - we had looked at the specialist chair companies and £500 - £850 too much for us. This ticks all the boxes for us - love it !
