This chair is very compact and perfect for the space I want to use it in. I do notice that in the reclining position I need a support pillow behind my head to comfortably rest. I haven’t had any problems reclining or sitting back up as some people previously reported. The chair was easy to put together and came very well packaged so there weren’t any damages to it. I haven’t used the heat or massage yet and that was not one of the main reasons for purchasing the chair.￼￼￼ Since the weather has been very hot in our area of California heat isn’t something I need right now￼. I will try using the massage feature later.usmassage￼
