I received the chair yesterday, and it is very firm. If you are a petite female, and you want to melt into your chair, this is not the chair for you. I am 5’1” and 106 pounds. It was hurting me at my pressure points, the head will not stay reclined. I think that I don’t weigh enough for it to stay put. Or maybe it’s a flaw in the design. When I reclined it at its lowest position, the back moves back when I sit up. It is going to be returned  because I already knew  within the first hour of sitting on it that I will not like it. Disappointing that I have to pay to ship it back, but, I can’t keep it for the sake of keeping it. The color blue is very good and the chair does not take much space and the build is very sturdy. Again, it is going back because it is too firm for me and the back won’t stay reclined.
