Bought this chair just to relax and watch TV.  It meets the bill for that and very comfortably fits both my tall husband and me; we start the movie and invariably fall asleep.  For large parties, we put a glass top on it and it becomes a coffee/serving table for snacks.  

Pros: It doesn't have the foam beads of the 70's but has a foam insert so little bits are falling out everywhere.  Super comfortable.
Cons: The cover is a little too large but with some tucks and folds can be made to look a little neater.
