I'm actually very happy with these chairs. I am slim and 5'4. I love the attachments, also, for holding books, cups, etc. They're very comfortable to me. I wanted two chairs, one for my husband. But he is 6' tall and bigger than me, he finds these chairs too small, tight and short for his frame, so we will have to get another chair for him. If you are a bigger person, I do not recommend this chair. For smaller people, slim and not taller than maybe 5'10 or so, this chair is great
