Purchased for office waiting area, these velvet-upholstered slipper chairs seem sturdy and comfortable out of the gate. Teal color was accurate to picture and the upholstery is better than I expected. Easy to assemble, but back placement can be a little tricky. We found the best way is to turn the bottom of the chair over on a tabletop and screw the back in, so you can get a little leverage pushing the chair back into alignment.
