This was a real pain to put together. The directions are awful. They consist of just a few small pictures with no explanation. Some of the parts came in one bag that just had about 7 different identification stickers on the outside, but did not clearly indicate which was which piece. The whole chair is supports by a piece of rope that has to be threaded through like a giant shoe. There is no way to clamp the top ends together and no instructions on how to properly tie it off. The rope is thick and covered in a slippery material, so a simple knot doesn’t work either; it will just come loose. So, because I’m not a boy scout and didn’t learn any special knot tying techniques, I’m pretty certain the whole bottom of the chair is going to drop out from under me one day. The whole unit is very heavy and difficult to move, too. Plus, the cushion is actually too long for the actually seat. However, it is cozy and does look like the picture.
