The color in person is a slight bit different than the picture. It's a little lighter. But a very nice brown. It's very comfortable for sure. And the power feature works great to lie you back in a very comfortable position. I would recommend this chair for an office, basement or living room.  It also has Storage on the side arms which you could open and put a book in or even the mini table it comes with. You may place this table with the included metal piece to the chair so you could place a book or iPad on it. It already has two cupholder.  It's very functional.
