Impossible assembly. 

Like most Americans my age, I've put together plenty of furniture but the engineer who designed the assembly of these chairs made a decision that I found very difficult to overcome. There's one step that requires you to blindly insert a nut into a hole and then meet it with a screw coming in at a right angle. I put together 4 of these chairs and only was able to get this step to work 5/8 times. The other 3 arms required two of my friends, four more hours, some pretty aggressive routing of the holes and use of drill bits in order to get the hardware to align. 

Recommendation: Spend a little more money and buy something better constructed. 

If the company can fix this fatal flaw, I would otherwise recommend the chairs; they look good, and seem well made.
