took my husband about an hour to put this together, the instructions are not complete. I had to Goggle the item for clarity on how to use the strap on the chair. This chair is huge! We are using it in our backyard; I wanted to use it on our deck but it was entirely too big.  It is comfortable, yet you will need to tie the cushion to the base all the way around to keep it in place. I prefer the egg chair with legs instead of the swing; an accident waiting to happen with the legs on the swing chair.
