I don't care for the back but it's better than sliding down in the chair! My dog don't like it she can't lay on my chest! She has to be on my shoulder! Lol
Bought this for my daughter. She is sitting and studying for the most part of the day. She said it is extremely comfortable and takes studying into a different level.
The chair is decent value but doesn't have a soft cushion to feel relaxed when sitting for 6-7 hours at a stretch. Also feels a little cheap in make for the price
