This chair was SO EASY to put together and the holes lined up perfectly! I thought it was weird how there were no screw for attaching the base pole to the swivel part and to the chair piece but once you put it all together and sit in it everything locks into place. I bought this for my craft room and it’s so cute! Yes there’s not much back support but I have a pillow so I’m fine. I also painted the base gold. Definitely recommend this chair it is beautiful!
