update: one of the chairs has already broken. It took about six months. How upsetting. I gave these chairs 2 stars because they came quickly and they are pretty to look at but unfortunately, that's where the positives end. These chairs are cheaply made. I understand that they were relatively inexpensive (we purchased four for just under $400) but still. They are light weight, some were chipped on arrival, and the little caps that hide the screw holes keep falling off. These are not made to stand the test of time, or sitting, or using. I foresee having to purchase new chairs within a year, and when the time comes, I will go to a local shop and pay big money for sturdy, classic chairs that will last. I don't like giving negative reviews but as I put the little cap back in for the tenth time this week, I felt driven to write it. If you are looking for chairs to use daily, skip these. I hope this helps someone.
