I can’t get up from regular chairs due to disability. The taller height works well for me. I use it as a vanity chair. The sloped arms help it fit into the knee space better when not in use.  I wish the seat itself was a little bigger. I am average size and it feels a bit tight. It rolls quite easily so don’t let it roll out from under you when sitting. I set down with the back back braced against the wall to be safer. Easy to assemble.
