This comes in a very large box and is heavy but it is very easy to assemble maybe 15 minutes max.I like the material its very easy to wipe down,the chair is kind of narrow so if your a wider person this may not be for you Im 58 and 175lbs and I fit perfectly my husband is 63 and 255lbs and fits but his legs do hang,my only real complaints are that the remotes are partially in spanish not a issue for me but for some it may be a reason not to buy also it does not get very warm at all but the massage part is ok just not super strong.the great thing about this chair is that it has a lift feature so if you have trouble standing from a sitting position this is great and it does almost stand you straight up from sitting.
