I'm 5'10". Is the back of this chair tall enough for me to put my head back against it?

I'm not sure. I bought the chair for my daughter and her newborn baby. It has a tall back but you would have to get the actual measurements from the description and estimate. Sorry I can't be of more help. My daughter is 5'5" and there is headroom above her head but not a lot.

I'm 5'10 too, and it is tall enough for me to put my head back against the cushion, but if you have a really long torso, it might not fit you as the top of my head is at the top of the cushion. If you try any of the Dutalier chairs at a baby store (Buy buy baby or BabiesRUs), I think they're all the same size.

You should be able to. Someone uses it regularly is 5'8" and they can with plenty of room

Hi - I'm at the opposite end of the scale @ 5'2". There's NO WAY you could sit on your behind on this chair. The angle of the seat is not adjustable. It's a great chair, but at your height, you'd be almost vertical. Or your feet would be under & behind the chair. Sorry, but keep looking!

I'm 5'11" and if I push my body back my head back about 4" inches will show. More importantly, this chair does NOT have a tilt feature so my head never touches the back of headrest. All in all, happy with chair.

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.

Yes - my brother is 6'2" and he loves this chair. The back is quite long, and someone who is 6' would be quite comfortable reclining with both head/neck & leg support. The leg rest won't go all the way to your feet, but it's well below the knees.

yes, your head will be above the chair. I'm 5'3" and the chair is the perfect size and is very comfortable for someone 5'3" or shorter.

I am 5'5'' and it reaches the back of my head. It may be too short for him.

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.

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.

I am 5' 8" and let's just say I am about what you weigh. Being that you have a few inches height on me you might find it more comfortable than I have. The back pushes you forward some and I find myself "fighting" with it. In all honesty when I have to replace this chair I will not be buying another like it. I need a straight back situation but this is too forward. I hope this helped.

This is a great chair! I can rest my head but if you are really tall, it may not be high enough. I have a lot of people that have sat in this chair and all love it!

I think the chair would be fine for you, especially if you install the footrest. I am 5'11" and eventually removed the footrest because it wasn't low enough for me (felt like my knees were higher than my hips). If you like to sit back in the seat, I recommend you don't have anything near the chair's feet to obstruct it so that you can get as close to the desk as you need to get. I have a foot stand and it competes with the chair feet so I tend to sit more in the middle or on the edge of the chair than against the back rest.

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.

No you are not too tall. Very comfortable chair. You are sitting in a relaxed position plus it pivots.

It depends I suppose on how tall you are but the back of the chair does easily go up and down. I am 5'4', at the lowest setting, it supports my head well. My husband is 5'8" and weraised it all the way up and it supports his head well. The pedals on this chair work really easily so finding your perfect comfort is easy.

right at 22" / 23"it comes up my back but not behind my head ..... so it is hard to lay your head back .... however it is a great chair ... hope this helps you decide

I'm 5'5 but I'd have to say yes because it's not very wide at all. I was surprised something so small could actually help but it does. It's not tall in the back at all.
