I was hesitant about buying this recliner because it looked small. However, it is a wonderful chair. It gets more comfortable every time you sit in it. I would not buy it if you are over six feet tall, however, since when it is totally reclined, your feet will hang off the edge. Also, because it is a wall hugger, the bottom of the chair is on a metal frame, and the chair itself does not sit on the floor. You can not lean forward or the entire chair comes off the floor.
