    Way smaller than I thought it would be. It's not horrible but better suited for a child than an adult for sure.

    Padding

    Rated 1 out of 5 stars

    Worst chair ever!

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    Let's start with the padding. There is minimal padding in the seat so when you sit you can feel the hard bottom. There is the same thin padding in the armrests so again you feel the hardness underneath. The height of the chair is very short so it only comes up to the base of my neck. I am 6'2" 185 lbs. and this chair is not made for adults or maybe not even children. You won't be able to sit in this chair for longer than 10 min without your butt, back and elbows hurting. Hopefully this warning helps. Don't be tricked like I was.

    This is a good chair but I wish it was taller. The back only comes to the bottom of my neck. Otherwise, its comfortable and looks nice.

    Comfortable but a bit short in the back. If you are 6 feet tall like myself the head rest becomes a neck rest.
