I wanted attractive easy to clean chairs to use at our glass table in our kitchen and this completely fit the bill. Having my former upholstered chairs eventually ruined after daily use with two babies, I wanted to go with something that was very budget friendly, hard to ruin/damage and easy to wipe down and clean and this is just what I needed. The design on them makes them fun and adds some style to the area. They are comfortable to sit in for people of various heights and weights even with the cutouts/design. They can be a bit uncomfortable to get up from if you're wearing shorts that do not come to your knee since skin tends to stick to this type of material but other than that, I haven't noticed any downsides to this cute chair.
