Bigger than I thought it would be, and that is good. Quite comfortable and lies all the way out almost flat with good support for the head. Deep seat, swivels easily and rocks gently. Came in large box, you only had to slip the back onto the base. We both enjoy it so we will be purchasing another on. Also it does not look like it belongs in a basement  'man cave'. And yes as others have said it does make a loud click when you push back the footrest. But we no sleeping infants to wake so it is not a problem.
