I found the chair fairly easy to assemble with some help.  For the price, I think it was a good purchase for my needs.  It is very comfortable and the adjustment to lean back I was essential along with a footrest because Im recovering from a broken leg.  I was hoping that the massage and heat were a bit more powerful, but as I said for the price I am satisfied. I will add that. I dont know that this is the chair for a bigger person. My brother sat in it. He is 63 in and it looked okay but not substantial considering his size.
