This chair does not take up a lot of space but provides an ample seat. I am 5'1" and require a small pillow at my back (typical for me) , but larger people find the fit good as is. Love that it accommodates up to 500 pounds so I don't need to worry when a heavy person sits in it.   The cushion isn't reversible, so it needs to have fabric protection applied. One downside is that the front edge of the cushion seems to be retaining the compression after an extremely heavy person sat in it. It doesn't seem this would not happen under typical circumstances. 
The fabric is smooth and true to color advertised. Legs screwed on easily. Packaging arrived torn but the chairs were in perfect shape.
