Valerie, Having driven I-80 from West Jordan, UT, just north of Jana, to Cheyenne, WY, then down I-25, 50 miles into Colorado, it's a long haul. Oh, and don't forget the 4 legged traffic aka Deer, Elk, Antelope and the occasional coyote, all through Wyoming and Eastern Utah. All that being said, there's some pretty country along there to see.

The building guy told me to have the floor guy call him and they will figure something out. So both were texted lots of pictures to discuss.

My chair is here! Ethan slid it down the stairs to the batt cave and from there I assembled it. Not hard. But it is a Ford - when you repair a Ford car, when you're done, you always have extra parts! Sorry Ken. This chair came with screws in place, like a spot holder for the screws you were to use from the kit that is included. Never had anything like that before! And no, those first screws never went back in, anywhere! Hence the Ford comment. Sorry again Ken. the chair assembled fairly easy, if you don't count my big boo boo. I put the arm rests on backwards, and had to take them off and switch to the correct side. I also punted the instructions a bit in putting the back of the chair on, just a simple way for me to do it alone and use the floor to help me hold things in place until I got the screws started.

Now for the first use review - I have never had a adjustable chair that went up, so my feet didn't reach the floor! I lowered it down a bit and it is great so far. I can easily fit in front of my desk and sewing machine. The arm rests are just right too. Good to rest my arm on and short enough to be out of the way of the desk and machine front edges. So far so good. the rock motion is stiff, but I'm good with that. So at this point, I have no complaints.

My old chair, I used at the highest seat height and still added a pillow to sit on, just raise me a bit higher as I sat.

No more helicopters today - just a flaming garbage truck at the Winco. Fire was there and Aaron too. the driver emptied the flaming garbage out on the main parking area of the grocery store. What a mess to clean up!
