We bought a pair of the chairs.  They look great and are very solid and well built. However, the assembly was a nightmare.  I am pretty handy and have put together much bigger pieces but this chair was just not designed with installation in mind.  I thought it would take 20 minutes to put each one together but it took about an hour for each.  The holes do not line up correctly, so word of advise is leave everything loose to line it up and the tighten it all....
