Amazon Brand – Ravenna Home Oakesdale Contemporary Glider Recliner, 35.4"W, Faux Leather, Dark Brown

This is a great buy in my book. I'm 5'10" 330 lbs. I have big thighs and a 46" waist. I'm going to address some questions and complaints I've seen.A) Assembling wasn't as easy as others say. The back has two metal bars you have to slide metal receptacles onto while holding the weight of the back up. I had to pull the metal bar in to slide one side onto the track. I'm semi-young and able, but I can see how this can be difficult. I wasn't too precautious and I cut my finger a bit. I also had a fear that I'd pinch my finger when the track slide down onto the bar I was having to pull in.B) The foot rest requires that you push it down with your legs, however, at my size I can't push it down and in far enough for it to click closed. At this price, I'm fine with it, but if you're a perfectionist in your buying this is something to be aware of.C) I am slightly taller than 5'10 and I do the joke every 5'10 man does where I say I'm 6'. My head rests comfortably on the back pillow and my calves rest on the foot rest. It doesn't sound ideal, but it's perfectly comfortable.D) I'm posting a picture of my tape measure from the ground to seat and between the two arm rests for clarification of other questions and ones I had. This is not a grand recliner. But it also didn't require a 6 month delivery window like Lazboy and cost half the price.E) It looks like an off-brand chair. It's not the prettiest. If you have a bunch of nice furniture and this, one thing is not like the other. However, it's still not bad.

Easy to put together. I put it together my self. A little heavy so need some muscle. At first it was a little stiff but after sitting in it for a while it starts to get formed to my body and comfortable.Its got good support. I'm a big lady 300lbs and it holds me. I got this chair because I have two babies and needed something big enough to hold and rock them in and it is perfect.Like other reviews have mentioned its hard more like impossible to close the reclined leg while sitting in it. You do have to lower it then get up to close it. Thats the only downfall. All in all its a great affordable comfy chair.

I had missed this reclining chair first when I searched on Amazon for one. So I went for a very similar one that was going apparently to be shipped from China and was going to reach me in about 3 weeks. One week later, the seller contacted me to apologize that my chosen color was not available anymore. So I went back and searched again...And I found this Amazon Brand – Ravenna Home Oakesdale Contemporary Glider Recliner, 35.4"W, Buff.I ordered it, received it the next day, mounted it 5 mn and I am now enjoying a new reclining chair...Here is what I like about it:- The price is very fair.- It was delivered to me the next day after I ordered it (compared to 3 weeks for the previous one, that is a huge difference).- It is very easy to mount and dismount (no screws, about 5mn assembly).- It is rocking when in seated position, stops rocking when extended.- It is comfortable when properly seated, the cushions are very supportive and the fabric soft enough (not sticky like leather ones).- It almost extends fully for a sleeping position.Here is what I like less:- The reclining position is maybe by design not a locking system. It makes it easier to un-recline but in the same time, every movement towards your feet engage some un-reclining motion that I have to counteract by reclining more again. It is a question of balance and where your center of gravity lies... I have to remember to sit higher on the chair for my bodyweight to be properly distributed on it.- As for most reclining chair, it still feels somehow smallish. I am 5'11" and it feels just.- I have to force the lock mechanism everytime I undo the recline position with my legs. I can imagine it to be an issue with older/weaker people.- The cushion right under your buttocks is not a moving part. No way that you can lift it to wash it or for any other type of maintenance. If this part gets damaged, the whole chair has to be discarded.In conclusion:Am I happy about this chair or not? Would I do it again?I am not regretting my purchase. For the price I paid, I am very satisfied. Does it mean that I am fully happy with it? Not for the reasons I raised above.4 stars.

This really is a very comfortable chair. I am 5’7” and my husband is 6’3” so, we have a hard time agreeing on chairs but this one is perfect. EVEN he likes it. In fact, we bought it for the nursery and put it down in our living room until the baby came and he thinks we need to just buy a second one. The only down side is the foot rest is a little hard to put down. I found it easier to just get up and then kick it down once I’m standing. Overall though, a very awesome chair!
