This could be a great chair, it is softly padded, rocks great, and is an attractive fabric.  I am 5/ 6  and my feet hang over the edge over 12 inches.  The  foot elevation when fully extended is not even level or higher with the body.  It sags downward when fully extended uneven with the rest of your  body.... It feels flimsy when fully extended.  I bought this chair to recover in for foot surgery and it was very disappointing that my foot will not be even slightly supported. I will have to use another chair to elevate my foot while in this chair.   This chair is for someone who is  small about 5 ft tall maybe 120 lbs.  I have two other recliners, and they both lift my feet level with my body or higher, and my feet do not hang over the edge.  Big disappointment, it is very soft and attractive, but it is not sturdy when elevated and lacks true support for your legs and feet when elevated.  Which is the reason you buy a recliner..... I have no idea how you return a recliner?
