Every time I walk into the room, I am grateful for this chair.  No matter what you think, you are completely unprepared for how fabulous this chair is.  The depth, firmness AND softness is all absolutely perfect for someone that is any height of 5'6 to god knows what.  It is wide, like even wider than a first class seat on an airplane, and I literally would spend all of my sitting life in this chair if I could.  I went with purple and the fabric FELT like it might be kinda thin for long wear.  I would not keep it in the sun, but its been a few months now and its exactly as I got it.  I cannot say how strongly I recommend this chair, and I have pretty demanding standards.
