Update: After 8 months of use, I can honestly say the foam used is not the best quality. The ottoman now will not recover its shape.//where the feet rest , it is caved in. Chair is used by a person that weighs 120 lbs and is 56 tall. I suppose a person could replace the foam (there is a zipper on the cover ). Also find that sitting in this chair more than 2 hours is uncomfortable on back and buttocks. I have placed latex pillows on the chair seat and chair back to make it more comfortable. Chair has no lumbar support. Other than that, it still looks okay but the pillows detract from its modern appearance.
Original review:
the provided Allen wrench is of little use, when you attach the arms. Its a tight fit and a PITA. I put this together without any help, you can too. I laid the chair on its side// to screw on the arms, no way that was gonna happen otherwise. Other than that, I have nothing negative to say about this chair. Its not a sink into type of chair, the seat and the back are firm, which is exactly what I wanted. The chair is nicely made, no loose threads, no scuffs or scratches, no funky odors. It was packed very well//both the chair and ottoman in one big box, that fit easily through my front door. I like the small footprint of this chair, it looks great in my home office. You need alot of patience to build this!
