I like it! My husband and I put it together, and it took about 10 to 15 minutes. Mostly because he had to squeeze the two joining parts together in order for the screw holes to align, which allowed me to screw them in, but it was easy overall for two people to assemble. The seat is firm but I find it comfortable and the back rest is very straight which works for me because anything more curved or soft would give me back aches. So, overall good chair. I would recommend it. My only complaint is that the "gold" finish is very gold and I probably would have went with the rose gold option instead, but oh well. Online photos are hard to figure out when assessing colors of something so I'll just deal with it. Even the customer photos haven't done this gold justice, so I honestly couldn't tell, but I'll accept it.
