I wanted something a little on the former side so I didn’t sink into my couch, and this is perfect! It reclines almost all the way back, the console has plenty of room, and the cup holders can hold larger or smaller cups due to the “hat” in the bottom of it. The only downside is if you want it to recline all the way, you have to take into account the amount of space you’ll need between the couch and the wall. Super comfortable, though and I’m exceptionally happy with my purchase.
