The chair is really nice especially for the price. It looks similar to a much more expensive pottery barn chair. It was very easy to put together. It is a firm chair, but pretty comfortable. The back is a good height. I am 5 foot 6 and my head rests with extra room at the top. The only reason I didn’t give it 5 stars is the foot rest is a bit hard to get back in at the very end, but not impossible. The chair glides and rocks nicely.
