Ive had these chairs for a year now and I wish I could be happier with them. The swivel is very stiff and they do not rock at all. One of them sits off kilter, totally crooked. For the price I had hoped for more quality in construction, but the details are still very nice. Nice cushions that are holding up, nice material that the chairs are made of. They are still beautifull and Im still hoping they hold up for another few years.
