I was trying to get you a picture to show the depth. Didnt really work very well so I will have to describe it.
The chair is deep, very deep. And the back support is slightly lower than shoulder height. Im 6.1 so thats how Im approaching this.
Now the cushions are supremely comfortable and you can expect them to be sort of firm when you set it up. But it hints at an inevitable softness that will come with use. It feels like its soft. The side panels on the chair look very thin, and they are but they are solid and lightly padded. You have enough room in this chair to slouch or sit any way you like and be comfortable. And the back support is angled just right, and padded well enough that you will be happy to fall back into it.
But its not exactly perfect. Im sitting in it as I write this and my legs are slightly elevated with the back of my legs pointed upward not touching the chair. This is because of the initial firmness of the chair and the seating angle. This isnt bad at all. It is comfy and I really like the chair. But a foot stool is basically necessary if you choose to buy this.
Just to be sure, I asked the wifey, 5.8, to sit in this and her reaction was the same you need a foot stool.
So I would be happy to recommend it but with that one small provision.
As a side note, we currently have some love seats from the stone and beam brand. All of this stuff is durable and the quality is obvious. Its normal to have some reservations about buying a sofa online, but I feel like you are safe here.
Get a foot stool
