I think this is a very comfortable chair. Assembly, however, was a challenge. It took me quite awhile to master putting the screws in place. By holding the chair in an awkward position such that the screws were in a vertical position (pointing down, not up) was the only way I could get the screws to turn. It was strange that I could not get them to turn if the screws were held even slightly horizontal. Therefore, you could not place the chair on the floor, you had to hold it awkwardly on your lap. I think with a second person holding the chair would have made it easier to assemble. But I am glad to have 4 of these chairs.
