These chairs are by no means high quality. I guess you get what you pay for.  The assembly instructions are easy, but my fingers are killing me after putting it together.  It's difficult to get the holes lined up, and the bolts don't thread in smoothly.  I can feel the back of the chair cave in when I sit in it (I am a small person), so I'm going to buy some pillows to hopefully minimize the effect.  I wouldn't buy these again.  The fabric is lovely, though, and they're going to look nice in my living room. I just don't expect them to last long.
