It was so easy to assemble and took so little time, the chairs are cute and comfy, but on one chair I got, the wood on the bottom did not line up with the hole, so I had to drill a hole myself. It’s not constructed very well, but honestly would buy again because everything else was fine.The stand and shock and footrest were very sturdy felt like it would last. Only problem was, the seat wasn't big enough, and not enough padding I could barely fit in it , I'm only 5'10 180lbs it would be perfect for kids.While this was perfect and easy to install and sturdy both of us could not fit in the seat. (No not together) If you are booty endowed you will not fit. It's like those seats they have outside the roller coasters. You know the ones where you get in and your butt cheeks try to spread out like the great divide and then you can't get back out....yeah like that. Save yourself the stress and disappointment get a different chair and a bottle of wine.Ok, so I got this chair which shipped pretty fast due to amazons two day free shipping via prime. I was looking for one that would adjust in height and for that it works well. When I unpacked the chair I noticed that the instructions must have been written by a guy cause there are no words just pictures lol. There were also only 4 screws for the entire chair so I was a little worried about its sturdiness but if you take the removable cap off it is pretty sturdy. The reason for the three stars is because the seat is not very wide so if you have a wide or big butt this is not the chair for you its ok but no as comfortable as it appears to beThis chair has one and only one redeeming feature: the footrest is stable. When the seat spins The footrest remains in place, which means you can rotate the seat 360 degrees and/or any part thereof and use the footrest as an anchor. That said, this chair has the most inappropriate design for an adult human being I've ever come across. The seat becomes increasingly more narrow toward the front, actually restricting the legs. The back rest slopes forward toward the seat actually pushing you out of the chair... it's one mysterious design. Also, if you are a person with spaghetti thighs and no bottom and a strangely tilted back and decide this sound attractive ... be careful during assembly ... the grease used to lubricate the supporting central post has an uncanny ability to transfer onto the seat ..... a waste of money at half the price.Seems like they are made for a smaller person. wish I would have known.I absolutely LOVE this chair! It was super easy to set up. Very sturdy. Looks great and is of fantastic quality. I read some reviews that mentioned the "awkward" design on the chair itself because or seems to narrow at the thigh part but I have no issues with this. I'm a size 12 and it's insanely comfortable for me but I CAN see that for someone over a size 12 or with thicker thighs may find that to be true. But it's perfect for me.When you sit in the seat you feel as if you're going to slide out!
