I ordered this chair in purple, wanting to add some color to my office.  I was nervous about the purple; was it really the color you see in the photo?  I read other reviews and for those who spoke to the color, they indicated that the color was true.  Indeed it was.  I LOVE IT.  Assembly was quick and easy, too.  As for comfort, it's very comfortable as well.  It's a welcomed addition to my renovated office space.  (once my new desk is set up I can submit a photo.)
