Is this chair comfortable enough to just sit and watch TV in?

I have watched TV in this chair but I put a small quilt or throw over it. You can feel the massage rollers if you don't do that. I would not give up this chair. It has been a lifesaver after my accident a little over a year ago. I have a back injury but am doing much and I have avoided surgery. A young disabled vet who lives upstairs uses it time to time.He was one of five survivors in a helicopter that went down and suffered a serious back injury. He just wishes he could get one but cannot afford it. I let him use mine when he really starts hurting.

While not as comfortable as a typical recliner, I watch television in mine all the time.

I have not tried that. I do not think it would be as you can feel the rollers on your bottom.

Its comfortable for a few hours for me i really use for mostly for surfing the internet and TV watching it does get a bit uncomfortable after a few hours since I'm a pretty skinny person so I need a little more cushioning on the chair but its good for now for the price.

No, it's pretty comfortable. I haven't sat on it for an extended period of time, but it's nice.

I've had this model for quite some time. There is a little degradation from an angle but it's not bad at all. I can't imagine that anyone would position a chair at a viewing angle that would make it unacceptable - it'd have to be practically beside the TV.

Possibly - but not the best choice. It is great for tv watching, relaxing and even sleeping. I really like mine. I suggest a good office chair as a better chair for computer work - that's what I use, the adjustable kind with high back. Best of luck.

Well, if your head were aligned with the TV, it would be impossible to use the chair while upright. That having been said, it is quite comfortable to watch TV when reclined - I am very satisfied with the chair. Hope that helps.

The chair is very comfortable once you get in. You are almost laying down, and it feels almost as hummock. I am not sure what specific characteristics you mean by "comfortable for reading", but rocking does not feel exactly the same as any rocker, because you are not sitting up. It is not suitable for someone with movement limitations: my 88 years old father, who is slightly overweight, had trouble getting out of the chair. Other than that, I still love the chair enough to bring it inside in winter to use it for relaxation practices.

It's not as bad as a wood chair, but it's not comfortable like a couch or recliner. There is padding, but the mechanics underneath the padding are lumpy.

Not really. It is more for looks than comfort. I don't sit on mine that much.

Yes, I would. It is very comfortable. I have a very bad back and hips. Sciatica and Fibro. I can sit in this chair and not hurt as bad.

Comfortable for "occasional" use when you are short of chairs. Not suitable for most people to watch tv or sit in for long periods. Two arms make it easy for older folks to get out of But they are more like dining room chairs with extra padding.

In my opinion, definitely not. It is a beautiful chair...it is not a comfortable chair. I love it so much as a pretty piece to put in a room we don't use often, but I would never lounge in it, as it is stiff.

If you are looking for a traditional chair it is quite comfortable. It is not a cushy chair, you don't sink into it. However, it is solid and comfortable at the same time.

Absolutely not. You can't lean forward Chair is slanted too far back to read or even watch TV. I love the looks too, but not very practical. Hope this helps. Good luck.

Hi there,It's actually comfortable for short periods. I'm using it for my dining table and I have two of them. For a quick meal or short duration, I like them. You can't really lean back in it, though. Therefore, as an accent chair or lightly used seating, it's good. Hope this helps.

No I'm 6-3 And I feel great in this chair and I fit great in it. If you set it up so you can lean back you will relax in it. I watch tv and play games in it I'm 55 years old .

Yes the chair goes all the way back into a reclining position and is quite comfortable. My husband has his in his man-cave for watching tv and is often found in the recline position taking a nap.
