Okay, I hit the jackpot with this chair!  It is super easy to assemble (alone!) and is comfortable and very sturdy!  I am not handy so for me to give it a 5 stars and find it simple to put together, speaks volumes!  I love the added feature that I can lift the arms, makes pushing it under my desk much easier.  I am very pleased with my purchase.  Oh, and I got it on sale, SCORE!
