If you follow the manuals assembly sequence you will run into major problems assembling the chair. It will take 3 x's as long. See my you tube video for a sequence that will have the chair assembled in 15 minutes.

I just bought this Torrent chair yesterday after going into the store to find something they had in stock. I'm not sure if I would have bought this after reading some of the comments about difficulties encountered during the assembly of the chair. I am a cabinetmaker by trade and have been in construction for more than 30 years. I am very mechanically inclined and I had problems assembling this chair. I got it assembled but I can see where the average person would struggle to do so.
Quality control was obviously not used during the manufacturing process. A good company will occasionally assemble their own product to make sure their tolerances are adhered to. The main problem with this chair is the positioning of the attachment holes for both the seat (to the metal base) and the support arm for the back of the chair. The holes were drilled in a manner that causes the metal plates for the two pieces to overlap. Since (according to the instructions) the seat is attached first, this causes the plate for the back to overlap by about ¼". This causes the holes for the arms to be out of alignment and makes it quite difficult to assemble the chair. I read one other persons review and he said he heard cracking sounds while tightening the bolts. I'm sure this was from trying to tighten the plates, but instead was pulling the embedded anchors out of the wood seat component. I only pulled my bolts snug, but this could cause problems in the future. Because of the gap due to the plates overlapping, it is impossible to pull the plate (for the chair back) tight against the wood. This could lead to failure in the future. It is a design and manufacturing flaw that needs to be corrected.
Brush up on your four letter words if you buy this chair.

      Comments about Staples� Torrent� Bonded Leather Managers Chair, Black:

      I almost didn't buy this chair based on assembly reviews, but I decided I'd try it and am I glad I did!!! I followed previous recommendations not to completely tighten screws and not to follow the order of assembly per instructions and found when I did this, it was pretty easy to put together. I didn't put chair onto wheels until the very end and this made it easy to attach the arms...turn the chair on it's side and place on the floor like an "L". The bottom plate does not look like the instruction booklet. I attached the chair back to the bottom first, and then did the plate with the up/down lever...it overlapped the piece attaching the back, but it still worked out fine.

      Chair is comfortable, offers good back support and swivels easily and arms are the right height to lean on. When you put arms up, you can get closer to your desk...which is great. It's so much better than my previous office chair and I can't be any happier with the product...it's awesome!

      Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

        I was quite disappointed with this chair. Connecting the arm rests to the back part of the chair was very difficult. In fact, I was unable to fit in one side of the screws.

          Comments about Staples� Torrent� Bonded Leather Managers Chair, Black:

          I bought this because my mom had one and it was comfortable. However, once I brought it home in the box it was terrible to assemble. No matter what I did I couldn't get the holes to line up from the arm to the side of the chair. Just like the other 85% of people on this site. So, I am out the gas it took to get the chair and bring it home on top of the gas to cart it back to the store and unlike other people on here, the manager on duty did not offer to have one made for me. She lost a sale rather than waive the $10.00 assembly fee because I walked out with my money back and didn't purchase another chair. Terrible customer service and a terrible experience. Your loss, Staples.
