My husband wanted a recliner but I don't like the look of traditional recliners these chairs need up being a win/win.  My husband is 6'2" so finding one that didn't look like a child's chair was a challenge.  I was a bit hesitant to order because of the reviews regarding the comfort. The seat was a bit firm at first but not uncomfortable and they loosened up nicely.  The chairs were easy to assemble and a great value!
