This item is fantastic, and I want to provide specific feedback on the build. The piece comes with the backrest already assembled (two pieces), the seat as a singular piece, and then the base needs to be attached. The difficult elements involve fitting the backrest to the seat, and then the armrest cushions to the metal connecting pieces. When you look at the backrest, the wooden wings which connect it to the seat look to be too large, but you bend them inwards to fit - it adds to the structural stability of the chair. This part is absolutely a two person job.

The armrests seem difficult, but can be done. The most important thing is to make sure the narrow end is facing forward - this is how they look on the genuine product. Then, you need to compress the cushion of the seat to align the screw holes. After that it is relatively straightforward to screw in.
