The chair arrived in box that was pretty badly beaten up. I worried that the chair would have been damaged, but I am happy to report that all was well. The chair is very well made, fabric is a heavy-weight home dec and the tufting is really nicely done.  The assembly was very straightforward, just the legs to put on - front screw in and the back are attached with bolts and screws.  It is a very small chair, so my petite 5' tall daughter loves it.  The color is a true red/cranberry and that was exactly what we wanted.  Looks great and I'm hoping it holds up better than the last chair I had in that space.
