I was really disappointed in this chair. I bought it because I have a bad back and need to sleep sitting upright. While this chair has been good for my back, it practically has no arm rests. The arm rests are so low to the seat that it's causing me shoulder pain to have my arm just hang by my side for log periods of time, even when fully reclined. I don't think I would recommend this chair to anyone who wants to sit in it for a long time.
