I do like this chair-- it's exact the right size for my small bedroom, and comes to the precise height of my dresser and my windowsill. So that part is nice. It is also very soft to the touch. One goofy quirk is that with the footstool pushed out, there really is nothing supporting the front, so be careful about leaning forward when you go to stand up-- I almost toppled off a few times. Ultimately though it works for what I wanted, which was something a little more comfy than a folding chair but smaller than an easy chair to read on in the bedroom.
