Assembly is a little tricky if you put it together by yourself.  You are screwing blind to attach the arms and it’s not easy to align the arms and three screws.  Also, careful placement of legs on ottoman and chair is necessary.  Chair is beautiful and the cushions are very pretty.  Pleased with chair, but I wish I’d had them assemble it, but the price of assembly was almost half the cost of the chair.  So if you have any problems with your hands or no handyman in your life, consider assembly.  Lovely architecture to the chair and I got the yellow color and Love the color!
