First, Wayfair has the BEST customer service ever! I will never hesitate to buy a big item from them as they back what they sell. We bought this recliner for an RV. We were able to get it inside a 25" door with a little maneuvering. The size of the recliner is big enough for a big person but it's not an "oversize" recliner. It also has a weight limit of 330 so you know it's built tough. I highly recommend this recliner and always buy from Wayfair.
