This is a cool chair, but as others have posted, the screw-in legs are a but problematic. They dont all screw in perfectly even, hence the extra washers that come with it to go between the legs and the bottom of the frame. You cant notice the extra washers, though.
Also, be careful not to screw the legs too tight, as you can either crack the frame (one poster noted this) or, as I did, loosen the anchored metal casings the screws go into (the casing themselves are screwed into the frame). I was able to fix this by using some super glue on a casing, screwing it back into the frame, and the screwing the leg back into the casing. I would suggest using the extra washers supplied before over-tightening any legs to achieve the correct angle for each while still feeling fully supportive. The supplied instructions are not helpful, fyi.
Once assembled (thats it, just screwing in the legs and tinkering with the balance and correct support), it does not feel cheap at all. However, there are plastic glides on the legs that seem to defy friction, so I highly suggest placing this on a rug so it doesnt slide all over the place.
In terms of comfort, it is a very firm chair, but huge. Normal-sized people can easily curl up on it with a book or sit sideways with their legs draped over an arm to watch tv. Definitely requires a lumbar/decorative pillow purchase, though.
The color in the picture is very accurate. I would say it leans slightly towards a bit of a darker teal, but you can safely go by the picture on the site and not be disappointed. Wish the legs were a bit darker, but theyre hardly noticeable.
Very cool chair for the price, the only complaint being the leg assembly.
