The chair is beautiful! Colors are exactly as they appear online.  The chair is firm, and I doubt that will change with use.  I feel overall it could use a bit more padding in the seat and arm, since the material is just  a bit loose. Assembly was super easy...just add the legs which were stored in a zippered pouch under the chair.  Being used as an accent chair, it will serve its purpose and add  a pop of color to my decor.
