This chair is really handsome, which is why I got it as a guest chair, but it's not comfortable at all. I think it will probably last forever - it's very well made. The leather is sturdy, but stiff, with no "cush". As a chair for a short office visit, this is perfect. Don't get it for comfort.

This is a pefect addition to our home office. we set it up by the window and next to a floor lamp. It's not the most comfortable chair for sitting for extended periods but makes a nice addition to our home office and is great for what we wanted it for.

We purchased these chairs for our business as guest chairs in a few offices. The businessmen that received them were very pleased. They look very nice...the comfort is minimal but that is fine for guest chairs.
