I had to almost build the entire chair up to and including putting on the fabric. Additionally, part of the arm fabric was crammed so hard into the base I had to take breaks between attempts to pull it out. It took close to 2 hours to build the charity, stretch the fabric over the arms, only to sit in it and it’s not that comfortable. The back doesn’t stay reclined, either. It’s really cheaply made, too. If it wasn’t such a pain to return it, I would. Such a disappointment.
