I am a 5'5" female and I find this chair to be way too large for me.  If I sit all the way back in the chair, the seat is about 4 inches too long for my thighs which puts the backs of my knees at an awkward angle. If I sit further forward in a more comfortable position for my legs, then my back is about 4" from the back of the seat, offering absolutely no back support. I also find the seat is rather hard, and assembly was very difficult with no written instructions provided. This chair just isn't a good solution for more than short-term usage at a time.
