I will use these chairs by our pool. It did not require any assembly, except to put  the tray onto the side of the chair which is so perfect to put my phone or drink while reading my books and lounging. It is easy and quick to fold or unfold it. The fabric of the mesh pillow is really comfortable and feels so nice. The chair feels sturdy and I can just recline the chair without a problem since the locks work great. I can probably fall as well on how comfortable it is. These were the least expensive chairs I could find anywhere. Perfect over all.
