Love the color! Between a light beige and grey, very neutral, soft fabric with reinforced seams.  Love the stiffer foam seat, makes it comfy but durable.  Whisper quiet electric recliner, which is great since it is right next to the baby's crib.  This does tend to look like it is leaning forward slightly, but it is designed that way so that it doesn't throw your weight off when it reclines.  The only slight bummer is that the headrest is just a smidge short so you don't get a full head on it until you recline almost all the way, but I am sure that is to make sure it can fit in tight places, which it does!
