These chairs are exactly what we needed! They are plastic/synthetic so they are easy to wipe down compared to upholstered chairs, but also still comfortable with the seat cushion. They are lightweight and match the dining table/apartment mid-century style. Assembly was straightforward and they still feel solid after a couple months of regular use. The only drawback is that sometimes crumbs sneak into the crevice between the seat back and cushion and have to be carefully fished out, or the chair turned upside down.
