Excellent cushioning and size for a 6', 170lb male. The reclining feature works easily and well with a quick pull of the handle. Very easy. The back is slightly low but it actually ended up being a great pic. The hight when sitting is almost at the middle of my neck.  The armrests are a bit low but the girth makes them very nice to lean into.  When fully reclined, the chair literally turns into an almost flat bed. Seems very durable for the price and the assembly took me about twenty minutes with basic tools that came with the package. Overall, extremely satisfied with this chair and would recommend it to my friends and family if they were looking.
