The "fluff" is too forgiving. I am a 6'2" 235lb male, and when I sit in this, to have as much backrest as possible, I am only a couple inches off the ground.  For tall people, the picture is a bit misleading.  I think the gentleman is sitting on top, in a very uncomfortable way (leaning back slightly, to give the impression the bean bag is on his back).  Taller people have to site very close to the edge to get the bean bag to give any kind of back support.  Otherwise laying down on this is pretty comfortable.
