Aesthetics wise, it was perfect.  Exactly what we wanted and expected. For a few dollars over a buck, it gets five stars.  However, at the original 200 or 300 it was "marked down" from, I would have been disappointed in quality.  The chair is very (!) light, which some may few as a plus.  I viewed as a sign of "cheap." (which yes, I realize it is) No hassle with delivery other than someone wasn't home, so had to sign slip and have them come back.  (FedEx) But it shipped quite quickly to be honest.  I was impressed.  Took it out of the box, screwed on legs by hand and that was it!  Its comfortable enough for some cocktail chat but it wouldn't do well for any extensive seating or a regularly used chair. So if you want a nice conversational/eye candy piece, this is it.  If you are looking for robust, super high quality, look elsewhere.
