anyone else have difficulty lining up the holes to put the legs in?? can't seem to get them in. any help or suggestions

No, but my one suggestion would be to add wood glue as you put in the screws. My chairs are a little wobbly now, and I wish I had done that.

We don't remember having any problems lining up the holes to put the legs in, they seemed to go together quite easily.

It took some work, but eventually lined up. Not nearly so easy as the description promised.

Did you use the red markings on the underside of the seat? They are there to help you align the legs with the correct hole.

It's kind of tricky. Relax and don't force it. Push one of the bottom leg bars first. I thought it was a pain at first, too.

Yeah, it does take some effort but I did get mine on. It's probably good to keep them from being loose - you could try other method such as fasteners if needed.

Same problem here. In fact, I have had problems with all the screws and holes. Have yet to get the thing together.

The way I figured it out was by watching YouTube videos. It's a little difficult to put them together on your first try though. I hope this helps.

I remember having some difficulty as well. I believe if you do not orient the legs just the right way they do not line up and are hard to find.

Line up the holes in the feet with the pegs on the perch, but it is a difficult balancing act for sure and sometimes the holes are don't match up correctly. I thought to try a glue gun if I just couldn't do it but my grand kids have no problem (Steady hands and good eyes).

Hi I put them together using the instructions didn't have a problem but after while I had to take it apart and re adjust it. It took a couple of times before I got it right. Take it down and try again make sure when u put the chair on the bar it's lined up properly and if u turn the Chair base over there are bolts try to adjust them. Also when u put the chair on the stand u have to pump it all the way up and then down.

That was a small problem with ours as well. I'm pretty handy so I ended up holding the cushion tightly in place and drilling a small pilot hole into the seat frame bottoms. I (think) I was able to use the provided screws but might've actually used a different size that fit more perfectly. When drilling and screwing just be very careful not to drill too far and penetrate the faux black leather!I also used a little wood glue on the screws to ensure they would stay tight over time.Seems like a minor design flaw that it was difficult to fit the cushions properly, but for the price I felt it wasn't a big deal.

I had this problem too. However if you put the two sides together before putting the truss on then step into you'll be able to wear them with no trouble. Hope this helps.

I just got mine out and set up the whole frame and had no problem with the tripod legs staying in place once I spread them out as far as they go and tightened the screw. Perhaps you got bad screws or the wrong screws on yours and you need to call the company.

Once the legs are assembled to the top, merely turn it upright slide the bottom shelve between the legs and it will slip to the bottom and be secure. It fits snug and is secure!

I had the same problem putting it together for my Dad at his independent living home. I found a man who was able to whack it in place. Sorry, not too much help.

Unfortunately you cannot adjust the legs. I have the same problem. I just prop the legs up and that seems for fix it.

Hi Cheryl, I had a very hard time with this also. I loosened the tension all the way & enlisted my wife's help. I held up the handles and my wife connected the hook. It took the two of us to finally get it. I think we were trying too hard; because, it just kind of went into place. Sorry, it's hard to explain what we did. It was very frustrating. Good luck

I have assembled toys, furniture, even an Ikea kitchen but I have never come across any process that has stopped me cold before these Kidkraft legs. I cannot get them on even with all the tips listed here. My question is, why haven't they changed the legs or the screws once they have been made aware there is an issue? Today is Saturday - I will have to wait until Monday to contact them for help.

Check to see if you folded the legs all the way out, Then pushed them into the bottom of the table, next step is to hook chrome squeeze supports. Hope this helps
