I bought two chairs for my front room. They are a beautiful yellow and they brighten the whole room. They were very easy to put together and they recline very easily. I get lots of compliments on how nice they look. They are very well crafted and they look like high end chairs.
This classic style chair is budget priced but doesn't look cheap. Whether you'll enjoy sitting in it is an open question for each purchaser.
Normally I wouldn't buy something where comfort, quality and size are important, but at a price of less than $200 for a recliner that something that looks so stylish I figured I'd take a risk.
It arrived in one box and was easily assembled by screwing in the leg posts and gently pushing the seat back into place until it locked.
The fabric is nice to the touch, looks comfortable and seems like it will last. The color is a perfect blend of red and orange. If it were more orange or more red I wouldn't like it, but this mixture of the two brings a strong sense of color to a room in a way that brings attention to itself without sticking out in a loud, glaring way. I really like it.
This chair is a good size for me. I'm a 5'11 male with a normal build. Sitting or in the reclined mode it fits me well with just enough room to feel comfortable. It's cozy but not tight with space to stretch. My friends who are less than 5'5 would find the distance between the front and the seat back to be too deep, putting their legs in an awkward spot of not bending at the knee and resting on the floor.
This chair is light enough that moving it around is easy. But that lightness also means that if you put it on a floor of some sort, you'll need to add something under the legs to cause it to grip otherwise it slides a lot. I've got the front legs on an 8x10 carpet mat and the back on the floor and I think that'll work to keep it in place.
The only complaint is that the comfort of the seat and the seatback is not very good. I expect the seat foam to break in over time and become more soft like my sofa has, but the seat back feels like a flat piece of cardboard with light padding and some nice fabric over it. I can tolerate it and for a cost less than $200 I can try it for many months, but I'm already looking at replacing this in the long run. It does support my back well, it just isn't soft and comforting. So for sitting, it does its job nicely. For reading in recliner mode, it works. If the same chair was made in a deluxe model for $100 more,I'd have bought that and been very satisfied.
This weekend I tried the West Elm Rhys Mid-Century Recliner. Google it: it looks like almost exactly the same chair with minor differences in the recliner parts and maybe the seatback. Despite the similarity in looks, it feels much, much better in the seat and seat back. But, it lists at $699 and takes 6-8 weeks to get in the same color.
I'm happy I bought this chair because it'll let me test how a chair like this looks in my apartment and it'll let me measure how much I actually use it. If I do use it a lot, then I'll probably replace it with something like the West Elm on sale and gift this away to someone who needs it. But for now, I'd recommend it for its balance of features and price.
Read the other reviews for more details and put emphasis on what we're all saying about the dimensions if your shorter, taller or heavier built than an average man or woman.
I've had this chair for a couple months and feel it was a good buy for the money. The size is perfect for a small space. I am hearing the springs pop now and then and wonder how long it will hold up. Its a little stiff so when I sleep in it, I use a small back pillow and small head pill which works for my needs.

Comfortable and lived color.

Good price, but not very sturdy. It does not accommodate an adult of average height, when reclining (I’m 5’10.)
Love them!

These are really good for the price but very very firm
These are really good for the price but very very firm. They won’t take a lot of abuse but at this price you can revamp the style in a year or two.
Nice chair for the money.
