I love these chairs! Perfect blend of modern and mid-century! They were KIND of a pain to put together, just because of the tight spaces but it wasn't too big of a deal. Also word of advice, take one chair out of the box, put it together, THEN take the other chair materials out, we mixed the two (not that all you smarty's would do this ;-) ) and the seats didn't fit correctly, so we learned our lesson not to get ahead of ourselves! haha. BUT the chairs are SUPER comfy! I am in school and I sit on them at the dining table every day, they are soft with JUST the right about of "stiffness". I don't believe you will be disappointed. GET THEM! :-)
