I'm really pleased with this velvet green office chair! It was basically assembled. All that was needed was to pop wheels into base, put the lift in the base and then place the seat on top and use the allen wrench to attach it with four screws. Could not have been easier, unless somebody just rolled it into my office! The emerald green is lovely and pairs nicely with the gold base and metal accents. The chair offers good back support, which I require in an office chair! The seat is not super cushy, but it's comfortable. I will say this chair is a little smaller than I expected. I'm a small person, with a small office (!) so it works out great for me, but it is definitely not overly generous in size! I do prefer arm rests on my office chairs, but this is very pretty and I'm sure I will adjust. This chair is stylish, supports my back and adds class to my space, so five stars from me !!
