real handsome design for the pricepoint, & nice color (seaweed). packaged compactly, easy to assemble & tighten bolts firmly so that it feels very solid & sturdy. i was impressed how this thing is put together (you can see the inside when assembling). great-looking, seats nicely w right amount of firmness, but not for plush, 2-hour reading binges, etc... armrests are nice, however. overall, very jet-age, 'designy' chair w/out breaking the bank
