My old recliner desperately needed replacing and it was nice to find one that is a good value. Its definitely sized smaller than what I think of as a typical recliner size. However, Im 54 and so its actually a really good fit for me. It came boxed up but was really easy to put together. The back slides on and then the upper wings on the back also slid into place. The chair is pretty comfortable and I love the swivel design. I also really like the color. Its not quite a navy, but a rich, deep blue. The only issue Ive run into so far is that the leg rest cuts into the backs of my calves a little. When the leg rest is lifted, the top sits at a slightly higher angle than the bottom and its not very comfortable. If Im sitting for a prolonged time to watch a movie or something I need a little more cushion via a blanket or a pillow. Overall, I think this is an excellent deal for the price and Im considering purchasing a 2nd one for my hubby.
**Edit** This recliner has tipped over 2x on me. Once I sat down pretty forcefully and it went completely over. Ill take some responsibility for that one. The other time, it was a pretty controlled sit and it still started tipping over. I was able to grab the table to keep from flipping that time. With this having happened 2x, I cant really recommend this chair anymore because its a safety hard. Not at all what it seems in the pictures
Nice Recliner / Love the Color
