I love these chairs! First let me say that I ordered 4 chairs, 2 per packing box. One box arrived the day before the expected delivery date and the other arrived the next day which was the expected day so you can say they arrived on time. They were packaged well and assembly was pretty easy. I didn’t find any scratches or marks on the wood. It is beautiful and I think they were the perfect choice to go with my table in our breakfast nook. I would definitely recommend these chairs.
