I’ve not had this chair for very long, so it’s hard to say if it will retain its quality over time, but for now, this chair is wonderful.  Sturdy yet so comfortable.  Looks really sharp.  Fairly easy to assemble, just make sure your sort out your left and right chair arms before screwing them in or you’ll have to dismantle to correct their placement.  Thankfully I noticed before I put the rest of it together!  Overall, so very pleased with this purchase - the chair is the best of two worlds - gorgeous and functional.
