I'm wound up now. Hate doing this ****.
Flat pack furniture is the spawn of the devil imo. Pay a wedge for some cut panels that you have to build yourself, just no. My last experience of that was a large corner desk about 14 years ago, the instructions were **** and the thing was never right after I’d built it. I vowed to never buy flat pack ever again & I haven’t.

I usually pay IKEA to put it together.

not my cup of tea either but can cope with small ones like that .
I've spent a fair chunk of the last couple of weeks changing the settings on my new chair as the incompetent ****wits from (outsourced) wheelchair service didn't do the measurements properly but the trouble is everytime you change say the height of back axle it affects the toe in of the wheels so you have to adjust the width of the axle and on it goes .
So far done
amended tightness of back rest
amended height of back rest
dropped height of axle
widened width of axle
raised foot support
stripped front wheels for thorough clean

though may be more .

Shouldve got a chrome vinyl wrap and spinning rims while you was there tbh
 
strangely the NHS don't seem overly keen on extras mate .
RGK used to do one which was seriously OTT and thinking about it Kuschall did one with Svaworski crystals stuck to the frame and a watch face embedded in the fork <laugh>
Tight batards mate. <laugh>
