I am a woman, about 5'4". Would the chair back hit too high and feel uncomfortable?

That's a tough question. I'm 6'1", which makes me unqualified to answer this question. The quality of the chair however is top notch considering the price.

I am 5 '4" and it fits me well. The seat could go lower, so I believe it would be fine for you.

I am 5'4" and have no problem with the height. Plus it is a rocker and you can pull the front down a bit to sit down. Just be careful because rocker goes back farther than you think and you may feel like you are going over backwards until you get used to it. Absolutely love it! Very easy to transport!

I am also 5'3" and my height was not a problem to fit in the chair. The problem is I am skinny. I weigh about 100 lbs. I feel the chair was too big for me because the back rollers are either too far apart or too deep for me to feel it.

I just got this chair last week, but I find it very comfy. If you are a tall person I don't think this chair would work for you. I'm only 5 foot tall and the seat depth is perfect for me. It does not recline all the way back, but is the right angle for TV watching.

I have no idea how tall the back is, but unless you are a person of extreme height, then it's fine. My husband is 6 feet, and it is not too short for him. I love this chair. Comfy, and a great cost.

It is right around 20". I'm 5'6" and had concerns chair would be too high. Also, weird triangular seat...would it be comfortable? Height was ideal for me, and also a 6' friend! And everyone agreed that the chair was surprisingly comfortable...even the backrest!Give it a try...I'm very pleased with my chair! (No, I don't work for Primos!)

No. I am 5'5" and the chairback hits about 3" below the top of my shoulders.

I am 5'9" and my wife is 5'5". For both of us, when we lean our head back and rock, our head is resting on the aluminum part of the chair that runs along the top. It is comfortable. The chairs are not really lounge chairs though. You are still in a relatively upright position when rocking.

Yes, quite easily, I am 5'2" - I will add however, you should still use a foot rest as tall as the foot ring in front of the chair for better ergonomics.

These are not high back chairs - I just measured 18" - that leaves about 14" left for the back. If that is comfortable for you, fine. I am short, 5'2", so an additional 4" takes my feet off of the deck! I agree with you as far as having good cushions for hard cast aluminum furniture. Makes it a lot more comfortable for "bony butts". I cannot sit on these chairs without comfortable cushions. The set is beautiful and I love it! Enjoy!

I am 5'5" and find this chair comfortable; however, I would not recommend this chair in an office work setting. The chair's neutral position is in a reclining position. You cannot adjust the chair to sit up straight. There is plenty of seat room for average size person. The back part of the chair ends about shoulder height on me, so I cannot rest my neck/head against it. The construction is sturdy, but I did have difficulty with a couple of screws.

This chair is for shorter individuals. It fits my mother perfectly and she is 5ft. Im 5 (8) and when I sat in the chair it was uncomfortable because I'm taller. I think this chair is for petite people anyone over 5ft 5in should look into a chair for taller people.

Although I bought this for my mother, I went and sat in the chair after receiving this question. I am 6'5" and 250 lbs and I fit comfortably in the chair. But I don't imagine it would remain comfortable if I had to sit in it all day every day. It is not a high back, so my shoulder blades were above the back. So I guess it depends on how you plan to use the chair. If for short time transport for someone, you should be fine. If sitting in it all day every day, then maybe not. Great chair for the price, by the way.

I suppose it depends on how tall you are, but not really. I am 5'8" and it hits me about mid-low part of the back of my head. I can rest on it, but it doesn't cushion my whole head. I just measured mine and it looks like about 25 inches from where the seat meets it to the top.

I'm 5'7" and when I sit in the chair straight, the back hits my shoulder blades. I have the back up all of the way. I don't have any way to measure.

The chair works well for me. I am 5'5" when I raise the chair all the way up my legs do not hit the floor so I would assume it should work well for someone taller.
