First, I was extremely pleased when the chair arrived several days faster than I expected.  Then I was happy it was light enough for me to move by myself.  It seems like a nice chair & it looks good, but I wouldn't recommend it for someone who is overweight or people with kids and/or pets, because I don't think it would hold up to much abuse.  But I got it for my bedroom & I'll mostly use it as a place to toss my clothes on my way to bed, so it's perfect for that.  And it seems comfy to sit on too.
