Shipping box was damaged and dirty when delivered, but fortunately the chair was clean and sustained no damage.  Was able to assemble it by myself.  Enjoy the fact that it rocks, swivels and reclines.  Deducted stars because it's a pain to lower the footrest from the reclined position.  It keeps popping back up so I have to push the footrest in with my hands.  This recliner will eventually be moved to my bedroom so it will do.
