Very happy with this purchase!  Have been looking for chairs etc for a while without cushions.  Tired of covering or taking cushions in all the time.  Happy with price and quality.  Purchased two sets.  After first chair, really not that tough to pur together.  Read directions!!  Don't tighten bolts till the end.  I will say each chair had one bolt that we were concerned we were stripping because it just didn't quite line up.  All turned out well.  I did oil all the wood on chairs and tables with tung oil, because during the season I will not be covering them,  We live in the North East, so I will be covering them for the winter months.  Love the look, and will purchase a throw pillow for each chair for next season.  Seat is deep, so you need a pillow behind your back.  Very happy with purchase!!!
