Im 125lb and the sides of the chair were pressing up against my hips. The footrest doesnt lock, and neither does the recliner. I dont weigh enough to keep the top reclined, but my legs are somehow too heavy for the footrest. The arms are very low. Again, Im a small person, and this felt like a Barbie chair. If all youre planning on doing is rocking in this with a baby its probably fine, but i dont think i could comfortably sit and watch TV in it. Returned.
