We really like these chairs. Numerous guests have told us that they are comfortable. They look really nice. We bought the beige ones and find them to be a good neutral. We have had these for at least a year and they still look good. My only concern would be for people who will be using all the time with children. Not sure how they would hold up for that. But as two adults who sit at our dining room table often but not all the time, we are happy with how they have held up.
