This chair doesnt work if you like to sit cross legged. The front of the seat has hard parts on each side that dig into my legs when I try to sit with them crossed.

I like to leave the back loose so it reclines when I lean back. The problem is that the little lumbar massage pillow gets really hot when I lean on it, when I sit up theres no escaping that heat. If I remove it, the back pinches me every time I sit up.

I have fibromyalgia so I frequently get back and body pains. I was so excited about this chair but its not going to work out. It is very well built, love the metal legs, so before I return it Im going to see if anyone in my family wants it.
