I was worried this would be too small for my fiancé because he's over 6 feet, and I read reviews similar to this chair  that says it's too small; but it's perfect. He may not be able to rest his head, but anyone shorter than him should be fine. Plus, he mostly wanted a reclining chair to play his Xbox, so that's not really an issue. The back is taller that I expected, and it was very easy to put together. Purple is my favorite color, but ironically I'm not a fan of darker purples so I was worried I wouldn't like the color, but it's a little lighter than the photo. Definitely glad I took the plunge to buy it.
