I bought this chair in May 2020 and it broke in August 2020. For the price, I expected to get more than 3 months use out of it. The metal base completed snapped at the seat bottom. I suppose it could be soldered back together, but that's beyond my expertise. For reference, this chair was used every day by my teenager. So, if you intend to keep it as an occasional chair, it may last longer for you. While my daughter didn't mind, it also doesn't have great back support as the chair back height is fairly low.
