Okay so here is the straight scoop. I am using these chairs in a game/tv room for the boys. I didn't want to spend the big bucks for REAL leather, so this is mainly why I chose these. They are smaller than the average club chair-I needed that too. The dark brown is- right ,style and shape -right, from a distance all is well!The legs should come attatched, I am handy, and can work a screw gun no problem, but the predrilled holes did not always line up, leaving a few of the legs looking like one good "flop" down in the chair, could break them right off. A snap on the back of my son's shorts make a scrape in the seat cushion within a few days. Mind you, if it had been full grain leather, a scrape is not a problem-but with bicast it cuts right through the top layer and looks like it could go deeper any minute. The seat cushions cannot be removed so taking it in for repair is not an option. These chairs should be used in a home where no one is under the age of 30. Also would show great in a model home.
