The chair itself is fairly nice, but it became difficult to assemble because of the cheap Chinese screws. The steel they must be using is inferior and very soft. I stripped out two of the screws when I went to tighten them down and I had to drill one screw out because the wrenching hole was completely torn away.
I would recommend either replacing the screws with American made hardware, or at the very least run a drill into the seating holes to make sure they are the right size and depth and use some bar soap on the threads before installing the screws
