I ordered six of these chairs. They were very easy to assemble, ten hex bolts per chair. It was actually harder to open the box and unwrap the parts than it was to assemble. They look like wood from a distance; it’s only until a foot or so away that their secret is known. Pretty comfortable but the true test will be in a year or so how of how the finish wears (fading). For now, out of the box, a5-star review.
