Assembly of this chair is simple well documented instructions and very easy to do UNTIL the last step to install the headrest. The hole is cut just a wee bit too small making it a 2-person installation with muscle to get alignment of the screws. Otherwise this is a great chair and very simple to assemble!
For a chair that advertises itself as a chair for anyone it really falls short. I'm between 72 and 73 inches tall and can't possibly adjust the chair to be comfortable for me. The headrest only reaches halfway up my neck and there is no way to adjust it. The lumbar support does not reach high enough either. Aside from the height related issues the arm rests are so far apart even at their closest adjustment. The chair's minimum recline also does not allow you to sit up straight even when locked in. Not sure how this got so many good reviews but I will be returning it.
If you are going to sit for a short time the chair is wonderful. I love the back support. But I have to sit for long periods. Unfortunately I found this chair to be one of the most uncomfortable chairs I have ever owned. Often I have to pad the seat with pillows or cushions to be able to tolerate it. I picked the chair but it was given to me as a gift. If it was not a gift I would have thrown it out already.
An okay chair at first. Not great but fairly comfortable for long days at a computer desk. But after a few months the height mechanism lost functionality. I have to use the lever to re-raise the seat height at least 4 times a day.

This is the chair I've been looking for. It is one of the best Christmas presents ever! (From my dear hubby). I spend a lot of time on the computer and my back no longer hurts when I get up. Fits me perfectly!
