I really like these chairs and love the fact that I can clean them. 4 stars because they could be a bit more comfortable. I've had them a year and the padding has gone down and you can feel the frame a bit. Having said that, company still stays for many hours after dinner just talking- we don't go into the living room. In the first few weeks of ownership, my son sat in one with new jeans and the chair turned blue : ( luckily a magic eraser and elbow grease got out most of the dye. At first I hated the black legs, but now we have redone the kitchen and the black legs are awesome. Here is a picture- just finishing up the kitchen remodel excuse the mess!
