Best Choice Products Faux Leather Electric Massage Recliner w/Stool Footrest Ottoman, Remote Control, 5 Heat & Massage Modes, Side Pockets - Brown

After scouring the internet for recliners I kept coming back to this model. I don't perform impulse purchases without researching and reading the comments. So what I can offer from my experience is the following:A) Other people say this is difficult to assemble. Only took me 10 minutes tops. Very simple. Tools might be basic but that is why you have tools available at home that will make the process easier.B) Directions are difficult to read. It can be but this is not rocket science at all. There are literally two bolts and nut for the base of the chair. It can be a little tricky to align but not a deal breaker. The ottomon for the chair is simple - four bolts and insert the metal stem into the base. Very simple..Now, I do understand if people who might be disabled or physically challenged might have difficulty. But for the average person shouldn't take long to assemble. Ten minute topC) For connecting the wires and vibrating. PEOPLE - read and listen up! This is not a deep tissue message unit. The information on the product states this. If you want one of those big fancy chairs that does this - spend more money and reserve your negative comments. For the most part, it vibrates and is lite but it is a nice option to have. One of the reasons why I went this route vs. the non-standard recliner.D) Comfort Cushy Chair - The chairs I have had in the past were your basic desk chair upright and cheap fabric. I wanted to spend a few more dollars on this for comfort. At first, I didn't really care for the chair but not I find it totally relaxing. Actually fell to sleep in the chair last night after a long week at work. Didn't expect this and had a nice snooze..E) I love the swivel - smooth and quietF) Only thing I would like to see in this model chair is height adjustment. My computer desk that I manufactured out of hard pipe desktop is a little higher than the chair. So I do have a couple of options is lower the desk to match height of the chair or look for a add on for the chair base to raise it higher. Not a real dealer breaker honestly because I still have options.G) The Smell - the first couple of days the smell was intense and found my eyes watering at times. After three days it was less noticeable and not has potent. From what I read others have used vinegar or fabreeze on the chair to lessen the smell. I really don't think you will need to go that far. Place the chair outside or in the garage when you leave for work. Let it sit to breath and bring back in. I didn't do this and left in my computer room. Again, after three days you hardly notice it.Would I buy this chair again? Probably - for the price, comfort, and style I am happy with my investment.

The chairs are wonderful! Very comfortable, easy to assemble and very attractive. The only problem is the remote controls we received are in Spanish. We are not Bilingual. This is the review I left for the product:We've emailed the seller multiple times without proper resolution. The remote controls we received are labeled in Spanish. The last email from the seller asked us to mail the two chairs back to them! All we want the seller to do is send us two remote controls that are labeled in ENGLISH. We will send the Spanish remotes back. This should not be the frustrating issue that it has become!Why must purchases like this be so difficult when there is no need? Yes, it's a somewhat minor issue but still extremely frustrating. If this is resolved with the requested swap of Spanish remotes for English I will update my review. (5/13/2020)UPDATE (5/16/2020) Seller has offered via email a mutually agreed upon partial refund. I will post again if/when we receive it.UPDATE (5/20/2020) Seller has submitted a refund to my account. I will conclude by saying this is a FABULOUS chair! It's incredibly comfortable. In reference to other posts, there is no smell. I would highly recommend buying these chairs. Thank you Best Choice Products!

Certainly there's no bad smell, as some reviewers have complained - just a mild odor of leather. Otherwise this is a reasonably comfortable, firmly supportive reading or viewing chair with pleasant heat and an agreeable vibrator-type massage. I'm not sure I'd ever use this chair for napping, though.Assembly was easy, except for the hinge between the seat and the back, which was challenging for one person to bolt into position. This hinge is also the main limit on user comfort: as you lean back, the angle of the seat is very little changed, unlike a true recliner.A few other shortcomings: upholstery material covers the pedestal base for both chair and footstool, and it's easily chafed; the vibrator in the footstool is disappointingly feeble and ineffective; unsightly wires hang out at various points (though most can be tucked into the storage pocket on the right side of the chair); and the chair is far from easy to get up from, requiring a firm push from arms and shoulders.In general, the modest price is what makes this chair a good buy.

It's a very comfortable chair, but the screws provided do not hold up. You'll need to buy better screws and a lock washer. My chair broke at the base from at the weld. I'm an average 200lb man but it failed completely after 7 months. I contacted the seller and just wanted a new base. They said that it was out of warranty so sorry about your luck.It may be a great quality chair and I got a bad one, but you're out if it fails.

I am not usually one to write a review, however, I was so pleasantly surprised by this chair that I feel I have to.The instructions appear to have been changed recently as they were very clear and easy to follow. It took me about ten minutes to fully assemble the chair and ottoman.My first thought when I sat down for the first time was how comfortable the chair is. It’s very well padded and supportive. The chair easily adjusts back for further comfort.I didn’t buy this chair for the massage feature but wow, I’m glad it has it! The massage feels very nice. It’s vibration and there are multiple modes. The heat is nice and soothing on my lower back. As I write this review, I am having a hard time wanting to get up.If you’re on the fence about buying this chair, I would recommend you do it! It’s much better than I thought it would be.
