Ordered 2 of these on sale and they are a good deal. I searched for the past year for something that I liked that wasn't out of the price range I wanted. They are plastic but you can't really tell until you are closer up. The cushion could be more comfortable and the material is poor as my cat has sat on it and already snagged it. New cushions are an easy fix though. They are easy to put together as I did it all by myself - took about 20-30 minutes per chair. I just got them so I cannot say how well they hold up. Overall I'm very happy
