Esthetically the chairs are great for the price. Assembling them is the most rediculous and frustrating experience. As mentioned in many reviews you need to lay the back on the ground, then put the seat part in and put your body weight so as to compress the cushion or else the screws will never go in. The first chair took me 3 hours to put together, then the others went better. Also, careful taking the Velcro underpad off or it will rip.
