High Back

I'm looking at the Town & Country Austin sofas and would like to know if there is a functional reason for choosing the high back 8138 NB over the "regular" back 8134 NB? Is this a fashion thing or a taller person thing? I presume the same answer goes for the high back and regular series Austin chairs, too.

Thanks.

The High Back series are truly more comfortable for most people. I sell (10) high backs for every standard back piece. I'm 5' 11" and far more comfortable in the High Back series. It really depends mostly on how tall you are and if you want to lean and have you head supported on the uppermost part of the cushion.
