Assembled chair this morning by myself (who needs men anymore :) but at the last step I had to ask for help--and yes, the only person around was a man.  I needed a second pair of hands to raise the back of the seat so that I could bolt it to the chair arms. I'm giving 4 stars because of how complex this last step was. I also wish the back of the chair was adjustable as it feels like I'm slightly leaning back even though I don't want to. Otherwise, super-comfy and definitely good-looking, offering above-average back support.  Chair also elevates to a nice high level or low level, if desired.  Would recommend with one caveat: Have a helper when assembling chair!
