Very poorly made chair, mine didn’t last 3 months before I had to call Wayfair to replace it (I wisely bought the extended service contract). The back of the chair is not well secured to the base of the chair, and as a result, mine has turned into a permanently reclined chair, with a huge gap between the base and the back.

It may work better for smaller people (I’m 6’3”), but I definitely don’t recommend this for a mancave recliner. On a side note, I don’t recommend buying this chair if you don’t want the massage function - it’s very uncomfortable otherwise.  

On a good note, the tilt-up motor works very well, so if that’s a buying criteria for you, this chair passes that muster. On an even better note, the Wayfairservice contract process worked even better than I expected after a 10 minute phone call, the order for a replacement chair was processed, and shipped.
