This is my second Ashley recliner, since I love the first one so much. I chose this one because it was somewhat smaller and I had limited space, plus it offered features like heat and massage. It came well packaged in one box, which made it pretty heavy to maneuver getting it into the house. Assembly was pretty straight forward, but it would be helpful to have someone to help with lining up the brackets when putting the back on. As far as quality it looks nice, The fabric is a slightly gray taupe with somewhat of a brushed suede finish. First impression upon sitting in it was that the back and seat are very well cushioned, but neither myself nor my husband felt it was comfortable enough to sleep in for an extended period of time. The lift mechanism works fine, but the chair itself doesn't seem as sturdy when operating as the larger Yandel. For the price, its an OK chair, but due to my disability, if I had tried it out in the store I probably would not have purchased it.
