These chairs had a gray finish soot that rubbed off on my hands. Had to wipe down the chairs 3 times before it was removed. Not sure if the manufacturer forgot to seal the chairs or they were dirty. Seat cushions were fine, it was just the rattan and wood areas that had the soot. Would have stained clothes otherwise. We went through 4 sets of 2 before we finally asked for a refund. Please inspect your chairs, I was apparently the only one who received the faulty chairs as described-which is puzzling. Really a shame because they're nice chairs. Have to say Wayfair always corrects the problem to customer satisfaction in the end. Thank you
