The test of a product like this will be how it looks in say twelve months from now: will it clean to look relatively new then and will the legs remain as sturdy? Certainly for the money, these chairs are fit for purpose now and replace some that were far more expensive but did not stand any test of time. We have been able to give our existing table a new lease of life, so even if these last two or three years, I think it will have be a worthy purchase!
