Not going to lie… giving in to my husband’s request for recliners was NOT easy. Showed this pic to our decorator who replied “those aren’t awful”… lol! I figured they were not expensive, so I would appease him and if I hated them would toss them in a year. I was so surprised when they arrived. The color is awesome. Super nice quality and feel to the leather. Easy to assemble, and I can’t believe I am saying this… super comfy! No handles, or buttons, so they really look like a nice arm chair when upright. I added a small throw blanket and coordinating lumbar pillow to both.
