I love this chair.  It arrived well packaged with no damage or other issues.  The directions were a bit confusing at first look, but then we  easily assembled the chair in about 20 minutes.  As to the color, I ordered the carribean blue which appeared a sort of teal color online.  When I opened the box, the color was really very bright blue.  But when I moved it to the family room, it does look teal.  No idea why the the difference in lighting would affect it in this way.
