Perfect size for our nursery - not too big, not too small. A little stiff, but still comfortable and supportive for breastfeeding and rocking baby. I will probably add a lumbar support pillow when sitting upright. The seat cushion can sometimes get stuck under the footrest when you sit the chair back up, making it difficult to "close" all the way. Assembly was pretty easy - no tools required; you slide the wingbacks onto the sides of the back, then the whole back piece slides onto the bottom portion. The glider base is already attached.
