I consider myself pretty handy but sometimes putting together boxed furniture can be challenging especially if the instructions are not clear Well this chair came packaged so well and the instructions were so clear and easy to understand. It took me 15 minutes to put together during my lunch break. I have been sitting here for about an hour and so far it is SUPER comfy and my posture is perfect. I have sciatica and a bad knee and so far not feeling uncomfortable. The price was great and it was delivered quickly. I am a happy with it.
