I absolutely love this chair. Assembly for this was very easy and took me about a half hour. I did need my daughter to hold on to a part while I assembled it because I did want to make sure it was done correctly. I'm picky but just a heads up in case you will need assistance with that part as well. Two of the pieces were labeled incorrectly but it wasn't hard to figure out what and how. Directions were easy to understand as well. This is a heavy and sturdy piece of furniture. I do love that this isn't wood but a hard thick plastic. The ability to have the cup holder to be tucked away when not in use is also a feature that I appreciate. The cup holder holds moats beverages perfectly with no issues. This is by far one of the most comfortable pieces of lawn furniture I have sat in. I love the angle it offers and the comfort is spot on. This hasn't scratched at all and we have had many people sit in this and enjoy it. It does sit out in the sun and I haven't noticed any sun damage. The color is absolutely stunning. I am definitely going to get a few more of these for company.
