Looks as appears in photo. If you chose to purchase choose to buy it assembled. The screw holes were inset at a crooked angle which made the screws nearly impossible to set because they sit in recessed holes in the arms that completely cover the holes and it's sheer guesswork to achieve the correct angle. We had to leave 2 of the 8 arm screws unattached after 2 frustrating hours. Aaargh 

In addition the adjustment knob that's supposed to control the incline feature doesn't.  And we haven't recovered from the assembly fiasco enough to turn the chair upside down to inspect the issue. 

The chair is comfortable to sit on. Looks decent and the cats are fighting over who gets to occupy the seat when daddy's not seated on it.
