This chaise lounge is beautiful! The fabric is more of a microfiber than a velvet. There are no buttons on the tufts. The color (teal) looks the same in person as on the website. The chair is comfortable, firm enough, and has plenty of room to stretch out. Shipping was on time (5 days) and assembly was quick (20 minutes) and simple (easy directions). This was my first time buying furniture online. I am happy with this purchase!
