I am doing a built in dining area where these benches would be pushed up against a wall, so i took a chance with these vs baxton studio although reviews stated the backs were velcro and not great.

I must say, after assembly, these are great!  they could easily stand alone and show from any angle.  I don't know if the manufacturer changed design since other reviews, but these look perfect.  They are also very comfortable and look far more expensive than they actually are.

great for the money and very sleek

Pros: great value
