Sturdy and surprisingly comfortable with a classic modern style, the chairs are nicer than expected. They easily accommodate average and larger adults.  I love the way they updated the look of our kitchen table.  I think the value for the price is high—excellent quality.  Arrived fully assembled.  Updated 10/2019 to say that the black paint is chipping easily on the arms of the chairs--would definitely recommend choosing one of the non-painted, wood stained versions.  We are a small family and these are lightly used by adults, so am not sure they are holding up well in that regard.
