It would have been nice if it was wider or at least available in a wider size. Couldn't find any beach chairs that would work for me. I was suffering from sciatica and was on vacation in Florida in November 2008. When lying on my stomach the cut-out was great for reading. I ordered the ergo-lounger and when it arrived I was able to position the pillows to give me complete relief of my back,thigh and buttock pain. Well worth the money. One of my favorite beach activities. When lying on my back it accomodated my ponytail.
Also, when you lay to read through the face hole you have to hold your arms on the hard bar which cuts off your circulation and my ankles have to rest on the bar at the end. The Ergo Lounger RS in my opinion is not so ergonomic. I'm 5'8". The fabric doesn't have any stretch to it so it is very uncomfortable on your tailbone and rear when you are trying to sit up and read. The removable pads do not do much for lumbar support. I went back to using my cheap drugstore stretchy plastic lounger instead. Save your money.
I was looking for a chair that was comfortable when laying poolside to tan my back. This lounger is great and very comfortable to use. It could stand to be a little wider, but definately comfortable. The face-hole is perfect while laying on your stomach.
In terms of comfort, you cannot beat this beach chair. I hope you have a big trunk though, because it does not fold up to a easily stored size. The head rest sticks out and its thick when its folded up.
The lounger is not suitable for my height (5'10). My legs dangle off and it makes "lounging" for very long uncomfortable. If you wear eye glasses and are laying face down your head won't fit through the hole. It also lays pretty close to the ground so getting up from the chair after having been on your stomach is a challenge.
