As an adult I love this recliner, BUT, I got it for my 7 year old and she says she loves it but there is a very small opening between the seat and the back of the chair which she has pointed out to me several times.  I think she is hesitant to use.  I am going to see about putting something between the seat and the back so she will feel more comfortable.  We can sit in it together and and then it is perfect.
