i saw the reviews were iffy, but i took the chance anyway and am very very happy it seems theyve learned from all your feedback, dear previous reviewers. everything was carefully wrapped and the hardware pouch had a giant caution tape type plastic tail that said hardware all over it, and contained all necessary parts. the instructions were succinct on one side of one page and the whole assembly was very easy and intuitive, though i am fairly adept at furniture assembly, so if youre already on the struggle bus with instructions, perhaps enlist some help or buy an assembled chair. all parts were intact and included. i didnt use one of the arms bc of my rooms set up and it worked beautifully to have that custom detail.
its quite sturdy and plywood on most of it, one of the better designed and executed discount furniture pieces ive seen/purchased; even better than some . the foam is very firm and will take some breaking in to soften, which is better than the alternative. if youre looking for something cute and cheap and you like this chair, go for it; youll love it if you have crate and barrel taste and are easily frustrated, skip it.
also, this chair would be quite portable for a trade show or similar, though not entirely portable it does assemble and disassemble and fold up really nicely. the ottoman is attached to the chair with two substantial hinges that make a clamshell to hold the arms/legs, just a thought.
LOVE THIS CHAIR
