I researched the reviews from all sites before purchasing this chair.  The only negative found was that it was hard to get the holes to line up connecting the back to the bottom of the chair.  A few people gave tips such as "sit on it to bring the holes together".  That's exactly what I did and it was so easy to line up the holes.  I had the chair put together in about 15 minutes.  I just LOVE this chair.  I ordered another one right away.  There is no "off-gasing" as I have read in other chairs.  This is one good buy!!
