I was disappointed when I first got these, others had mentioned how comfortable they were, and I thought they weren't comfortable at all, but after having them for nine months now they are comfortable. However, they're not well made, my husband was sitting in one and made a quick movement and one of the legs got a crack in it. For full disclosure my husband is 6"3 and weighs 200 lb but I think when one is just laughing and makes a quick gesture I don't think a leg should crack. The screws on the chairs will loosen up as well we have had to tighten them and it's not like we're not getting them tight enough to start with. For the price point I'm happy to have something that looks good and is comfortable but overall poorly made.
