The chair is as hard as a rock, and is large for a small woman.  Men would fit fine.  The color was the huge disappointment.  I ordered the one called "blue", but expected a bright blue turquoise based on the photos.  When I opened it, I was so disappointed to see a murky/muddy bluegreen or teal.  Definitely would not have named this color blue.  I would call it a murky teal--not a bright teal.  I needed it for the holidays and waited too late expecting it to work out perfectly, so, I have to keep them.  They still match some of my decor, they just don't make me happy being a sad color I would have never chosen and hate to look at.  On Wayfair's behalf, I will say the chair is extremely hard, if not impossible, to photograph color-true and does not turn out the way my eyes actually see it.
