Very uncomfortable for taller people. We bought two. My wife (5'3") likes hers, but it's unbearable for me at 6'4". The top of the chair hits me in the mid-back, and there's not nearly enough padding there. It feels like a 2x4 is digging into my back, because it is. We'll likely keep one and look for a coordinating solution for me. If you're shorter, you can probably make this work, particularly with a pillow and if you got it on sale. Would not pay a top amount for it, though. The back in just under-padded, which is a shame, because it looks quite nice.
