These are great chairs for the money! They look just like the photos. They are the perfect firmness for us as we don't like furniture that's too plush. The foot rest is just the right length for me (at 5'2"). But my husbands feet hang off, which he says he doesn't mind at all.   This is a compact chair, takes up very little space, even when extended. They are basically all that we expected and nothing more or less. Very pleased with our purchase!
