So easy to put together! (1 person/5 mins.) Really pops in a room-- I paired it with Mestas glass desk, so quite dramatic. Been surprised by how many compliments I've gotten from men & women. As others have noted,and the only reason it lost 1 star, is seat is not at all  soft -- so long 'sits' aren't likely; and not as white as picture indicates. But still looks bold and cool without being heavy or taking up a lot of space. No regrets.
