This chair is very sturdy and incredibly simple to put together. The link color is exactly as pictured. Purchased for my 6 year old's new desk, but this chair also fits adults as well. I am 5'7 and can sit in it perfectly comfortably. We've only had the chair about a week, so I will try to update my review after I see how it handles against daily use of a 6 year old. At this time I recommend this chair.
