This recliner is small - which is what I was looking for.  It was purchased for my 93 year old mother so it was a good size for her as she is small - however - her feet stick out over the end of the recliner when it is up, it is difficult for her to lift up and put back the reclining foot stool as it is manually manipulated, and the arm rests are very low.  This recliner is okay but I would never have bought it if we had been able to try it out first.  A reclining chair is probably not something to buy online and would be difficult to return!
