Chair is very small in person, In reviewing the pictures the was presented there is no way to foresee this difference in size vs picture. Maybe pictures were taken intentionally to make chair look bigger.

Fits me ok, reclined position is not very comfortable and my need some breaking in. I do like the dual position reclining
