I am thrilled with my purchase. I had this put together in minutes all alone. It was a cinch to put in one bolt, lift and flip. I found it comfortable. I will purchase a small pouf stool. This will be my afternoon reading and tea chair. The color is darker than the photograph. It must have been taken with a flash or very bright lighting. This is not a concern to me, so all stars remain intact. The color of the chair is reflected in my artwork and curtains in the main living area. The chair co-ordinates well into my decor. I already have plans to purchase another. With two of these chairs and a small table I will have a cozy nook in the main living area. I am absolutely in love with my gorgeous teal chair.
