They are great chairs for the price! Purchased 6 chairs for office conference room. I Put all together myself, instructions not needed after first chair assembled. Only hard time I had was lining up the arms with the screws on the seat and back of chair. You may need extra set of Hands to help hold. 2 out of the 6 chairs ordered had cracks on just the cylinder shaped cover piece that goes over the metal piece that connects the chair to floor base. Other than that great chair.
