I was scared to buy something unseen but after looking at the reviews, I went for it since I'm on month 7 working from from home and really wanted/needed a comfortable chair. I also wanted a wider chair so my dog can join me when he wanted.  I am very satisfied with this purchase. I don't find it too hard like some some of the reviews, of course I was using a wooden dining chair for 7 months, and I love the off white color. Took about 15 minutes to put together. Just what I needed.
