This review is from: Baxton Studio Cettina Steel-Base White Plastic Armchair, Set of 2 (Kitchen)
I ordered two pair of these to go with a tulip table. These chairs are great! Sturdy and pretty darn exact replicas of the originals. Even though the price has dropped since purchase, I still feel great about what I paid and what I got. The shipping was prompt and arrived intact. Only one minor problem...while there's only two main parts to attach, there's lots of screws and washers, etc...no instructions. Those would have been nice to have included. Fortunately, they aren't hard to figure out (I was an aircraft mechanic and now a database architect). Here's my version of assembly directions per chair...
1) Gently separate the bases (they arrive stacked and become wedged together slightly during shipping) by easing them apart.
2) Flip seat part upside down on a friendly surface (cardboard or carpet, perhaps).
3) Remove the felt circles covering the screw holes on the bottoms of the seats but don't discard them. Find the four plastic chair feet (if you look at the base legs and see the knob it should be easy to tell what the feet look like). Apply the four still very sticky felt pads that you removed from the bottom of the chair part to the bottoms of the black plastic feet (not to the very similar big black rubber washers). The felt pads were clearly used to protect the parts from each other in shipping (they are covering the metal screw holes in the bottom of the seats) but are intended to be applied to the bottom of the black plastic feet to protect your wood floors (if needed). Set the feet aside for now.
4) Put the four black rubbery circles (they look sorta like garden hose washers) over the screw hole posts in the bottom of the seat part. They will fit perfectly after you remove the felt circles (step #3).
5) Pick up and flip over the base onto the bottom of the seat part...and screw it into the seat part using the four hex screws, the four metal washers, and the hex wrench provided, inserting the screw through the metal washer...then the base screw hole...and into the base of the chair. WARNING: Pay attention that you have the base lined up to the right screw holes in the bottom of the chair before you try to screw them together. I noticed one reviewer said he had to bend the base frame to match the holes in the bottom of the seat. If you pay attention, you will notice that the four holes are NOT in a symmetrical square pattern and the base posts are not all the same hight (intentionally). You will observe that when all the holes line up without any bending, you have the base turned the right way to the seat. If they don't align, turn the base until you get it lined up correctly before screwing it together. DON"T BEND THE BASE!
6) After you tightened the seat securely to the base (don't overdo it though), flip the chair over upright and set it down in such a way that the legs are sitting on the black plastic feet that you put the felt pads on the bottom of. Now, press down on the chair so that the ball-in-socket legs snap into the feet. It will take firm pressure but that's good so as the feet are on securely.
7) Have a seat :)
