This recliner is great for tall people. This chair sets 23 inches off the floor, not 21 inches like the description and picture show. It has a tilt towards the back when it is just sitting with no one in it. I’m 5’4” tall and I have to stand in front and jump backwards into the seat. My feet do not touch the floor when I’m sitting in it. My legs dangle and I can’t make it swivel because my feet are 12 inches off the floor. This causes my legs to fall asleep. Not very comfortable for me. This chair is very hard to get out of also. The fabric is very rough and scratches my skin, especially my elbows.
