The other reviews about assembly are semi accurate. I found the first chair extremely difficult to get together. The holes on the seat cushion didn't seem to line up with the holes on the back of the chair. So the screws didn't seem to fit. However, once i figured out the first, the rest went quickly. You've really got to push the seat cushion down into the chair back. (Will make sense if you purchase.) The holes line up and the screws go in no problem. Chairs feel pretty sturdy once assembled. The fabric has a slight sheen to it which i think makes them look a bit cheaper, and the cushion, while comfortable and thick, is clearly a very cheap material inside. Overall, for the price, I'm happy though. They look great next to our new table, and they're comfortable to sit on.
