Got this to use as a bathroom chair, for applying makeup at a vanity. I wanted a hard (not cushiony) chair for this purpose so I was not disappointed in the hardness of the foam. The fabric is just OK- it is a woven canvas and not super thick. Cannot predict how the fabric will wear. It feels like cotton or cotton blend. I love the distressed legs on this chair. I got the gray color and its slightly a blue gray. 

Pros: Easy to assemble, simple style for transitional decor
Cons: fabric is a question mark
