Josh and I are currently looking for new furniture for a small loft downtown. When we came across this chair in World Market, we were really excited. It has a wonderful tweed covering that upon touching is soft and not scratchy at all. Plus the color is perfect for hiding my cat's fur. I thought surely it would be uncomfortable. Boy was I wrong. It is honestly one of the most comfortable chairs I have ever sat in. We're definitely getting this one. Now if we could just decided on the apartment. LOL
