I’m a 5’10” 62 years old female and I put this together on my own! Yes I assembled it all by my lonesome. I’m proof that with some creative moves, this chair can be assembled by one person. I wouldn’t advise anyone do that but in these days of Covid, we find ourselves doing a lot of things alone... I love this chair and I fit comfortably in it. Did I mention it’s beautiful? 💜💜💜
