First, these chairs are beautiful! Soft to the touch. They are firm in that they provide plenty of support. I don’t think they are uncomfortable. 

However, assembly is a bit confusing. The first step is assembling the legs and then attaching the legs to the chair itself. Despite following the instructions to not tighten the screws during Step 1 until after you’ve tighten the screws in Step 2, I found it difficult to get the legs on the chair. Instead, I did step 2 FIRST and then step 1 - I found this SOOO much easier. I almost returned the chairs because I thought the legs were bentnot aligning with the holes. Glad I spent a little more time with it!

Purchase these! You’ll love them!
