The chair is really comfortable for me...I'm sure it won't last for years and years due to it being faux leather, however for the price if it last two years it's still a great deal. Anymore you just can't buy furniture that lasts very long even if you spend thousands so I'm happy with this purchase. It was a snap to put together, just be sure that you have more than one person to maneuver the box into the house as the box is quite heavy.
