Not that comfortable. There's not enough padding/cushioning in my opinion. I was expecting more of a recline but it barely does. Also, I find the arms to be too tall for the seat, so it gets uncomfortable and my shoulders sometimes hurt when I'm sitting on the chair for a while with my arms on the armrests. Wish the back was a bit longer/taller as well, so some of the proportions or measurements of the chair are a bit unexpected or not typical. Lastly, it was only quiet for maybe 24 hrs; after that, it started creaking and making noises and I haven't been able to make it stop. So overall, not really happy with the purchase, and if I could turn back time, I'd definitely keep looking and get something else.
