Signature Design by Ashley Barstools

First of all I should say that this chair is absolutely beautiful. The but...I got a chair that had been previously manipulated. Someone had tried to put the chair together before me. Why do I say that - because I could see that the nuts and bolts had been put together by the directions. I thought that was curious, but I just kept putting my chair together. Then i put the base down and the one leg on which only had a red button at the top. So once I put the seat and the back on to the upper base and put the whole thing together I noticed I could not adjust the seat up or down. I could not figure out what went wrong. I followed the details to the tee. Nothing out of the ordinary to do. I am short and weigh average and I was able to put it together. It still would not work. Amazon sent me a new chair and I looked carefully at the packaging this time. The nuts and bolts had not been put together, I had to do that. And then I noticed something that I had not seen before - on the base leg at the top was a black knob that said "take me off", I did and it exposed the red button. I said to myself there wasn't a black knob on the other one. I put my new chair together and it worked perfectly. So now It was time for me to take the old chair apart. Easy as pie, but I noticed that that black knob had been stuck in the shoot of the upper leg. Someone had tried to put this chair together and messed up sent it back. Please do not send this chair back out. Please. I pray amazon reads this and does not put this review out, but sends this review to the manufacturer or the company it came from. If you get an original chair it will work beautifully and will compliment a home with elegance. The chair should get five stars but because I was sent a chair that was not inspected and sent back as a defect that is why it receives one star.
