It's okay for now. Assembly was super easy - just two steps - and the chair feels pretty solid. The main problem I have with it is the back of the chair. There is no way to permanently secure it to the seat cushion. You just slid it in - which is very very good for storing in a closet, but because of that, I don't see it lasting a very long time in the living room as main chair to sit in. That's fine with me, because I'll this in my room as an extra chair.
