These chairs are an amazing bargain.  They are very attractive and don't have the sloppy finish look of most inexpensive furniture.  They are a lovely, rich grey that goes beautifully with my mainly black and white furniture.  Their design would look good with a variety of furniture styles. Mine is a mix of modern and country, and they look perfect. I have to admit I haven't used these chairs for dining yet because my dining table hasn't shown up. But  I have used one as a fill-in desk chair while I wait for the real thing, so I can attest to basic comfort.
