Fashionable, solid wood chairs at this price? Yes, please. They were easy to put together. I purchased two sets of gray variation, both open box and discounted. The one box was legit an opened box and there were a few dings and marks, as to be expected. Nothing too crazy - and if it did bother me, I could easily touch it up with paint. But the marks just added to the charm. The other box was clearly not really an opened box, but hey, that's fine by me. They were packaged well, with clear directions on what to put where. The legs are different lengths (on purpose) with two shorter in the back and longer in the front. I tried them both ways and ended up leaving two as directed and two with the legs swapped since it felt more comfortable to me that way (no cutting into the backs of my legs). I liked that it worked either way, giving me an option to semi-customize based on what worked better for my situation. They feel like they will hold up well.
