I understand that in order to build this chair I don't need to install the arms,but can I build the chair and then take them off and on when I please?

Yes, you can. It has a knob under the seat to adjust them or take them out.

These chairs do not come assembled. I have 6 of them (2 with arms and 4 without). They get progressively easier to assemble as you gain experience in doing so. The main thing to keep in mind is the directions must be followed in the order they are given.

Yes, just don't hook in the arms when you put the chair together. This is a great chair and Hon is a great company and stands behind its products.

you have to just put the legs on...it's easy..except one leg on one chair is off...seems to be a problem with most of them...it's a nice set and you could live with the shorter leg...we are.

It could be put together without the arms... I'm just not sure how sturdy it would be without them. I did not really test that out while putting it together. The chair is really quite a nice chair and easy to put together.

Yes you can. They are adjustable arms. You can also take the arms completely off.

The arms are a fixed and necessary of the chair. They cannot be removed or adjusted.

Hey Emily,Yes, you could not install the arms. The chair is made in such a way that you could use it either way (with our without arms) and not detract from the chair cosmetically, for a different look. Just put the chrome screw caps into the holes for the arms to give it a finished look without the arms. It's a very nice chair for the money, I still love it.

Yes, when you put it together you can just leave the arm rests off and if you decide you want them later, no problem.

Yes. My wife did not want the arms, so I just left them off. They come unassembled so its a matter of choice if you put them on...John

The back is held up by the arms only. So no, unless you want an armless and backless chair :P

Yes, you have to put the chair together. Each piece is unattached. If you are missing any parts, call the number in the box and they will send more.

I suppose you could put it together without the arms? I find the chair comfortable, in contrast to what others have said. No forward tipping at all.

No. The top of the arms will come off, but that still leaves a post sticking up about 2 inches. You see in the picture where the arms snap in. The base of the arm and the legs are all one piece. So someone who has to slide onto the seat could get injured by the 2 inch high posts sticking up front and rear. You need one without arms.

It's an old Jedi Mind Trick. You have to tell the chair it is already together before you can successfully put it together.If you do not find that to work, allow you son (If he plays with legos) or daughter (as a last resourt) and attempt to have their prementive mind put the chair together.At this point will the chair be ready to accept the fate of being assembled and build itself up from nothing.It is really a magical feat to achieve. Good Luck,Someone who bought it and had to do the above.
