I recommend that you sit on such a chair once. Then you can imagine whether it really fits. I know people who were thrilled after sitting on it, but also some bigger people who decided not to buy it. Check on the internet who has this chair in their showroom, maybe you know someone near you and you can try it out.

Yes, the chair is more for taller people, my wife can't get her feet on the floor, so I would say yes.

Actually, that should work for you too.
