Ordered 6 chairs which shipped quickly and arrived in excellent condition. Inspected each chair carefully, counted the included screws, etc. (which were all there), and read the instructions which were very straightforward with pictures. Assembly on 4 out of the 6 was fairly easy. The other 2 needed some fabric trimmed away from the screw holes, and two holes weren't completely cut so needed to have a bit wood pulled away to open them. Not hard, but I think these 2 chairs were made on Friday over there in China, lol, but after a little extra work, they went together and look just as lovely as the others. Be prepared to persuade those screws that attach the seat to chair back, every one was a little different and presented its own little challenge. It took a little less than 3 hours to assemble 6 chairs, with the first one taking 45 minutes. I'm a 64 y.o. grandma, so trust me when I say that 'if I can do it, anyone can!" Dig down deep for that extra patience, don't try to rush, and you will be rewarded with a lovely chair and the satisfaction that you actually put the bugger together yourself! I love these chairs, perfect for the purpose, they look great, and the price was just miraculous. Thanks, O!
