The chair is comfortable, but putting it together was a misery. The first chair we got had the screw holes so far out of alignment there was no way we could force it together. Wayfair sent us a replacement which wasn't much better but, with a lot of brute strength, swearing, and power tools, the job was completed. We had no problem putting the matching loveseat together, so I don't understand the poor quality of the chair. The pluses are that the chair is comfortable, looks great on our patio, and Wayfair was great about replacing the first one.
