Condition Report

Overall very good, attractive, structurally sound condition.  The upholstery is clean throughout, free of any discoloration or losses, with the internal foam still soft.  The aluminum base also presents well, showing some scattered faint surface scratches associated with age-related use, with all four plastic feet present.  The swivel feature functions well and operates smoothly.
