I am happy with these chairs… they are attractive, sturdy, nice material and color (true to pictures, beige could also be called cream or off-white). I like that the cushion covers unzip for cleaning. Swivel action is smooth and not too loose. They are comfortable, especially with a small pillow for lower back if slouching into it to read for awhile. Cushions are firm but comfortable and supportive. Arrived quickly and undamaged. Assembly was not too difficult (1 person, 45 minutes first chair, 30 minutes second chair), though it was a bit tricky to line up the holes at times. All hardware was well packaged with a spare of each piece. I am really sensitive to off gassing and have noticed that “new” smell. It took about a week before it is not noticeable to me. I used an air filter with a voc elimination option near them for the first week. Almost impossible to find products that don’t off gas at all, so it is what it is. Very happy with this purchase.
