Measurements
Please take passengers measurements when they are in a relaxed state as this is how they will sit in the chair.
Lower leg length, seat depth and seated height when added together should equal or be
very close to their actual total height in inches.
Seat depth and lower leg length should both be very close to the same
measurement.
