- Is the leather real or bonded?
- It is described as premium black cowhide leather, so genuine hide rather than bonded or faux leather. Expect it to soften and develop a patina with use.
- How far back does it recline?
- The back sits at a fixed 15-degree recline. There is no lever or motor, so the angle does not change.
- Will it hold a heavy person?
- The rated weight capacity is 330 lbs, supported by a solid hardwood frame and reinforced plywood legs. That is above most accent chairs.
- Does the ottoman come with the chair?
- Yes, the ottoman is part of the set. The two ship in separate protective boxes, so they may not arrive on the same day.
- How much assembly is needed?
- Expect to attach the legs and possibly the back; the frame and upholstery arrive assembled. Two boxes means some unpacking and setup time.
- How do I care for the leather?
- Wipe with a dry cloth and condition the hide a few times a year. Keep it out of direct sun and away from heat sources to prevent cracking.
- Where is the Leather reading chair with ottoman cheapest?
- At Amazon, for $149.99, as of our latest check.
