I love this chair. It was extremely easy to put together. Just insert the back, throw on the seat cushion, and screw in the legs that come in a zipper pouch underneath the chair. It took me all of 5 minutes. The color is great. I got the charcoal, and it was exactly what I expected. It is a very firm chair, which is what I wanted. My only complaint is that I wish it came with a matching ottoman.
