All I can say is GORGEOUS chairs!
Well packaged the screws and allen wrench are under the chair so lift up and look underneath, my husband used his drill to set the feet and screws on and each chair took maybe 5-10 minutes tops. Very comfortable, although I will say these chairs are push back to recline if u have any kind of disability or trouble with upper mobility strength these may not be the chairs to pick, other than that they are easy to recline, and yes they recline halfway to fully reclined positions, and they do stay reclined at the halfway position.
