The seat is too narrow. On the recline, the legs tend to angle down; the seat does not position for the legs to rest in a perpendicular position. The leg rest is too short, legs stick out. The back does not lock in place. When leaning back or rocking, the back tends to want to go into recline mode. The fabric is a bit rough. I would not recommend this seat. I had a lazy boy recliner for over 20 years but this one comes no where near the quality and comfort of the one I had.
