I purchased two of these. The assembly was easy. I like the chairs. I was initially taken back by the lightness and size of the shipping box, but everything was packaged well. One of the legs had a small nick in it that I didn't notice until I had them all assembled and tightened.  Unfortunately, it was the front one. I could have taken it apart and moved it to the back. Overall, I'm pleased with them and would purchase again.
