I was a bit skeptical about this chair due to a few reviews claiming it was impossible to assemble alone, wasnt nearly as comfortable as it claimed to be and more, but I am SO glad I listened to the dozens of other positive reviews I read instead of the few negative!
This chair is large. I am only 52 and weigh less than 120lbs on my heaviest days, so its technically too big for me. That said, I never sit with my desk chair low enough to put my feet flat on the ground, anyway, and instead use a nice foot stool for support when Im not sitting cross/legged or with my legs draped over an arm rest. This chair is PERFECT for that. It also fits right under my desk at its lower position which is great (with arm rests down, as well)! Its SO easy to move up and down and it does so QUICKLY. No weird wiggling or moving around necessary. To go down, just hit the lever. To go up, lift your butt up just enough to relieve it of your weight and do the same, and its as good as done already.
It took me less than 30 min to assemble alone. I did give that part 4 stars because it was a little difficult due to the holes on the back rest and arm rests not lining up too easily when placing screws, but with some maneuvering and pressure they did go in and tighten just fine. Its stable, cozy and gorgeous in my office. Its also got GREAT back/lumbar support, but well see how long that lasts! For the price I dont think this chair can be beat. (It does NOT come with complete instructions and the screws are labeled differently than the very limited instructions label them, but its super simple and easy to figure out, even with such poorly written instructions.)
Gorgeous, easy to assemble and COMFY!
