I needed a couple chairs for occasional extra seating. I have a narrow screened in porch with two very nice wicker recliners (in black). Every now and then a couple extra people want to drag chairs out to join the conversation. I have some Adirondack chairs on the back deck but they're just too dang big for the space available. When I saw these, the scale looked right and they stack so that's a big added bonus. I bought two sets, added cushions, and they have been the perfect addition when we need a couple extra seats. I should add, they are so light and easy to move around, they are "supposed" to stay on the screened in porch, but have migrated to the front patio, back desk, and lawn as well.  Guess I'll have to buy a few more.
