Hello, what is the height of the back? I want to use the chair to rock my baby asleep while she's on my shoulder, so I need back support. I'm 5.7"

22 1/4". I am 5'4". It works for me. Probably comes up to the middle of my back.

Approximately 20" from seat cushion to top of seatback. Excellent support. I wouldn't recommend it for sleeping/napping but is very comfortable sitting.

I am 5'3" and my feet just touch the floor. I simply put a decorative pillow behind my back to coordinate with my other furniture and I'm fine. The chair is gorgeous & very well made. Just ask for an extra pair of hands when you put it together.

The chair back is 28 to 28.5 inches. I am 5'10", and it fits me very well. However, I could see someone who is taller having a problem.

Yes - at 5'7" I'm very comfortable - the back of the chair is higher so you should not have a problem. Plus, the chair back is curved and conforms to your body.

My daughter uses this chair, she is about 6 inches off the ground when sitting in the chair. It does not have a ton of back support just an FYI.

gave to my sone who is 6ft.2in. 200 lbs. I am 5ft. 3in and my feet did not rest on the ground when sitting in it. Great chair for lumbar support & built great but not for short people

I'm 5 ft. 11 inches and when I sit down on the chair, the back is 1 inch above my head. I could measure it, but I like this way better.

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 am 5'4 and back support is enough for me. However, the leg support is short. I hope this is helpful.

Hey Steve. how are u. After measuring it. it's about 30.5" from the floor to back-end of the chair. Very comfortable chair as well.. Hope this was helpful & Happy Holiday's!

I am only 5'5" and it is fine on my back for the most part. Sometimes I use a lumbar pillow though bc of the curve in the back is a little higher than where i need it to be. It is probably built for a taller person. The good thing is the back is totally adjustable to any position, including the arms. They go up, down, foward and back. It is a very comfy chair

Appreciate the question - sorry for the delay. My wife has used this chair (she's 5'7"). She really likes it. Lots of flexibility and support she likes.

I'm 5'6 as well and it doesn't seem like its made for someone our height. The chair curves in where it should bow out to support your lower back and so the headrest pushing your head forward.

Happy New Year, Pat! Forgive me for the late response. The back cushion measures 25 1/2" high and the length of the seat cushion from back to front is 17". These pads fit our standard rocking chair perfectly, just as pictured at the left. Hope this helps, Carole

Cannot measure chair right now. I'm 5'4" and put a pillow behind my back. High quality for the price
