It will HAVE to work for me, cuz I aint sending it back. It really is a nice chair, but I guess I didn't read the full description. I thought this chair was a rocker recliner,  not just a recliner chair. It was definately easy to put together, as I'm almost 70 years old no less. This chair is very well made. The stitching is beautiful! Just wished it was a rocker recliner
