it was very easy to set up the chairs took about one few minutes for each. I was not happy with one chair as the arm rest was inside the side panel and not flush with or slightly extending over the side panel like the other chair and the right  side of this defective chair. I took phots of the chair # 1089 and 1090 which i will send e mail back to you hopefull. I am 83 and my wife is very sick so not able to guide me with this i am not sure how to send the photos maybe by e mail to you or via phoneto your 844 694 3536 number..
