I can't say enough about these chairs! They are just what I wanted! Each one took about 15 minutes to put together. Yes, they had a bit of a funky smell right out of the box but that quickly went away. The seats have a lot of padding, which is a bit on the firm side, but I would rather have it be a little extra firm now as I'm sure the more we sit on them the softer they'll become. The color (grey linen) is very rich looking and the nailheads are the icing. They look so much more expensive than what they really were. I will be ordering from Wayfair again!
