We love this chair! We needed something simple and smaller to be used as extra seating in our living room. This chair does the trick! It's a very light shade of grey, even though it looks more beige in the photo. It's very simple and comfortable, but I wouldn't take a nap in it. The arms are a little lower than I normally like, but again, I didn't need too much. The chair does require assembly, but it was simple and I was able to do it without assistance.
