I have only used the chair a few times, but the cat occasionally takes a nap on it when he wants privacy.  I ordered it for tax preparation in April, and I'm done with those! My handy husband assembled it quickly  if I remember correctly. Many colors were out of stock during a special sale, so I just picked the light gray and it looks fine, and I got a great price! I need to get some kind of textured mat since it zips around too easily on the hardwood floor! I recommend this office chair, and Wayfair.
