Strong enough for a big dude, but starting to show signs of wear
I like to wait and write reviews after some time has passed. Its been six months so here we go!
First, know that I am a heavy guy so six months with me is probably a year with someone more moderately built
The chair was trivial to set up. Instructions where clear and it only took 15-20 minutes. No worries there.
It is very solid. The reclining mechanism is solid and reliable. Note that you are not fully reclined and will always be at a slight angle, but it isnt like most cheap recliners that just sort of rotate the seat and keep you folded in half.
The fabric is attractive. The cushions have held up well. It is quite comfortable.
There is one spot on the arm where the stitching is fraying. It is right where you put your hand to lift or re-seat yourself. Basically, since you are not lying flat, you will sort of slide a bit over time while Netflixin. When you push yourself back up in the chair to stop slouching, that spot is where you put your hand. The stitching is coming undone - one side only so far.
Not a huge deal but wanted to share with all. If you get it, treat that spot with care and maybe put an arm rest on it.
