This is a BEAUTIFUL chair!  It looks perfect in my beach cottage style apartment.  It is heavy, sturdy, works perfectly, well made, and easy to put together.  (I had to use a hammer to tap the wheels into the base).  I'm extremely pleased I decide to purchase this. I needed a chair that would not only fit in aesthetically with my decor, but that was comfortable and able to slide under my unusually low desk.  I'm 5'8".
