I bought this chair instead of the Lazy Boy due to price. I had tried chair in store. Upon arrival and assembly of the chair the appearance is nice but....it's not near as comfortable as I had though it was or would be. It does go higher than my previous chair. But near the back of the seat it seems a little hard. I just dont seem to fit in the chair seat comfortably. I have had it going on 2 weeks and maybe it still needs broke in but I would recommend trying an alternative. Also I purchased the chair elsewhere but it is same chair.
I bought a chair from Staples a year ago and it didn't hold the height; it kept lowering itself as I sat in it. I thought maybe it was old so I purchased a new one this year. Same thing-while sitting in it the chair will start to lower itself. Very disappointing!
Still very nice chair after one month! The instructions are clear but it was very challenging to attach the back to the side handles. Five stars for quality and price 3 stars for ease of assembly.
