This chair is very comfortable and the back is tall, which is something I was looking for. The reason for 3 stars rather than 5 is that the nail/screw covering on the front left portion of the glider is missing, and put horrible scratches in the hardwood floor before we realized there was a problem. We had to put a rug under the glider the prevent further scratching, so make sure to check that all the screws are properly covered.
