Bought the armchair table for my 93 year old Mum who is disabled and spends most of her day in a large riser recliner. This table is great as it's wide enough to comfortably fit over the chair and get right up close to my mother when eating meals. The types of tables that are designed to go under armchairs are no good for riser recliners as there is no space underneath for the table to fit do this option of going right over the chair is the only one available.
