It was very nice and also extremely easy to put together. I was a little disappointed because it felt that I could have just ordered one of the less expensive options and there wouldn't have been that much of a difference. I thought if I paid more, that I would get a better quality piece of furniture, however the only difference that I can tell is the arms being on it. Once I seen that they went on by sliding them onto a simple bracket I felt like I could have left them off and saved myself some money. Now I just hope the arms don't get  pulled off by my friends wild kids lol I guess price doesn't always affect quality. It is a very soft and comfortable chair however and it will work just fine for what I need it for. I suppose that ultimately I like the look of the one with the arms on it better, but i'm not sure if the higher price was actually worth it.
