This was by far the worst piece of furniture Ive ever assembled. The directions are terrible and I put together a fair amount of furniture in my lifetime. The holes were drilled wrong. The dowels wouldnt go into the holes. It took so much longer to assemble than necessary. Once assembled the chair is fine. It is best to assemble with two people. And if you arent good at assembling furniture or need explicit instructions, dont buy these.
Update: when I went to remove the stickers on the arms, they had fused to the clear coat on the wood. They were impossible to get off without scratching the wood, which is soft. I paid 130 bucks per chair and they werent worth it.
Nice chair. But difficult to assemble.
