It's only been a week but so far this is a great chair. Everything needed to assemble was included including a wrench to tighten the screws. It's Dec in MN and sitting in it right now is a little chilly so it should be cool in the summer. The chair had a slight smell when first unpacked but that's mostly gone now. I'm 6' 240lb and the chair does not feel like it's going to tip over when I lean back.
