The chair is much narrower than we thought. At 180 I fill the chair up with little wiggle room. It does not recline completely but you can push it back. Massage is loud. Haven’t tried heat. Bought it for knee replacement surgery and my advice is don’t wait to go to the bathroom because even to sit takes awhile. Gave up on it raising me up. My husband says”there are lots of wires in there to wear out and leave us with a useless chair”! He’s probably right. Wouldn’t buy it again.
