Well I am 5' 4" and It's definitely not a head resting chair for me. If I sit in the chair the top of the chair hits just above my bra line, so without taking measurements, I'm guessing it would not be ahead resting chair for you either. The chair is gorgeous and one of my favorites in this house, but I wouldn't use it to rest in.

I am 5'10" and the top of the back hits the bottom of my shoulder blades when sitting upright in chair, therefore you would have to slouch a great deal to rest your head on the back. My kids, same height as myself have used it with a footstool to slouch and lie their heads on top of the back of the chair.

No, definitely not. I am 5 foot 2 inches and it reaches my shoulder blades.

No the back is not high enough to be a head rest even though you are 5 foot tall the chair sit low but it's a really cute accent the chair is not a lounger.

No. You are too tall and the back would not be able to accommodate your neck and head. Additionally, it is very difficult to move from the reclining position to the upright position without substantial effort. I would not buy this chair again.

The back is 25 inches high on the inside (seat to top of cushion). I am of average height and when I lay back, my head can rest on the back cushion.

I am 6'3" and the head rest seems too low. Stargrave's answer is about right.

I am a little over 5'5 n 1/2" the chairs highest point rests right where in that pit where my neck goes into my skull. About 99.97% perfect. Would be perfect if I were 1/2" taller. But also to note I have short legs and seem to sit taller than my wife who is 5'6" my wife has long legs. Chair is comfortable for both but more so for me.

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.

You would have to be a dwarf to rest your head back! But with a small pillow on the back cushion, you can make it work. I love the chair but it is a small chair not a lounger.

I am 5'9" and the top of the backrest is almost exactly at the top of my head if not 1/4 in above. When reclined you are a bit lower as it pivots.

I'm 5'5" and the top edge of the back of the chair hits the top of my shoulders. No way would it be considered a high back chair, in my opinion. In other words, you can't rest your head back on it. Not sure of the measurements. Sorry - have a broken ankle and it's too hard to get to the tape measure and the chair right now.

I am 6'1". When I sat in it, the pillow was at a height where it came behind my neck, kind of like a neck roll pillow. If I would scoot down a little on the chair I could rest my head on it. Hope this helps. MC.

I'm 5'6" and I can. I don't believe at 5'10" you would be able to. You could rest your neck tho! :-) Very comfortable chair otherwise. My dad uses it and he's 6'2".

I am 5'3 it's a great chair, but if I was 6'4 (my husband is 6'3) no it is not a high chair. He wouldn't buy it for himself he said. Greatly made!!!

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.

The Heigh of this chair is 48.75". It depends on how tall you are from a sitting position if your head would rest against the back of the chair. I have a chair that is 33" tall. I am 5'3 and my head can rest on the back of my chair. But it will vary depending on not just the height of a person standing, but primarily on their sitting height.

Not sure exactly where the head rest on a person who is that tall, I'm only 5'4 and my husband is 5'8, and it's comfortable for both of us (probably too small for you). I'm sitting in it now (all 5'4 of me) and my the top of my head extends approx. 1-2 inches above the top of the headrest. The problem with the chair is that the hydraulic lift doesn't work (or whatever it is that allows you to adjust the height). So you can lift the seat up, but it quickly falls back into the lowest position upon being sat in. And if you're 6 feet tall, you're going to want it to be in the higher(est) position. I know this $100 chair is tempting, but I suggest going to Costco or Office Max/Depot and sitting (bouncing) in their chairs and make sure they don't fall.

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.

Hi, I'm 5'2" (or so) and it's just high enough. The top of my head meets the top of the chair.
