This chair is super cute. Was simple to put together - took seconds. But it IS very hard to sit on. The seat is not cushy at all, but I think it will be ok for me. I chose this one because it looked cozy for my chilly basement. Because I have a traditional desk with a slot for my legs, due to the arms on the chair I can't bring it forward as far as I'd like to be, so I have a pillow behind me. It swivels well. I'm hoping the fabric will hold up. I would probably chose another chair if I had the ability.
