Ok so this is a bit mixed. I really like the chairs. They are a great size and very comfortable to sit and  to rock. The material on the cushions is not thin and so I am not concerned about ripping. I did get the beige and after just two weeks they have some smudges on them. I'm not sure how that could have happened because we are not hard on them in any way. Also a small area on the bottom of the rocker is coming unwoven. Again, not sure how as I inspected them after they were assembled and all was fine. That is disappointing however, I will still keep them and try to find a way to stop the unraveling. Again, they are very comfortable and rock/swivel smoothly. I would purchase again.
