I chose taupe color for a dining room table chair that may have occasional food spills. I'm glad the memory foam is 'very firm' for cushioning a wooden chair seat. One suggestion to the supplier is to wrap the cushions in protective layer before placing in the UPS polyurethane shipping bag, which was punctured in transit by something sharp that penetrated inside and snagged/tore 2 loops of he cushion covering. (I can repair the snag, but it could have been avoided.)
