Have been looking for chairs for months. Saw similar chairs I liked with a $400+ price tag for each. These chairs exceeded my expectations for the price tag. Make sure to purchase a can of scotch guard. My only concern is my two grandsons and staining. As stated in a previous review, there was some wood glue at seams. Color is definitely not grey, however, I didn't want grey. It is a sand color. They look much more expensive than they were. Assembly was easy after the first one. Have a drill charged and ready and assembly is pretty fast. Shipped on time and packaged well. Extremely pleased with this purchase! Matches my trestle table from Restoration Hardware beautifully, for a lot less money!
