I swear I read reviews that said this was a great recliner for smaller people. Now, it is very nice, comfortable and looks very good, but it came with a small pin-hole on the lower side (probably a result of a shipper issue) and when I sit all the way at the back, my feet stick straight out! Nowhere near the floor. I'm 5'0 and my husband is 5'7 so it would've been best if we could sit in the chair without a recline. As it is, it would be ridiculous that way. I may keep it because I like the shape and price and it's inconvenient to ship back. BUT, if I had seen it in the store, despite the nice features, I wouldn't have bought it because it is SOOO deep. (And yes, I've already put a pillow there too.)
