The chair comes in pieces and is screwed with 10 screws and quickly together. However, the tool supplied is not good really. Overall, the wood is very thin. The seat is only inserted, the wobbles then according to the swings. The armrests are too narrow for "normal" arms of a man, prolonged sitting then takes care of pain in the forearms. ADDENDUM: Not quite one year, the chair dissolves into its individual parts. Daily use for about 20 minutes, was in the dry. Not even a star, he is worth it!
