I was so excited about these chairs, aesthetically they were what I wanted for our kitchen and dining area; however, after less than a year, every single chair has chips all over them, its ridiculous and so disappointing!  Every time I wipe them down I find new spots where the paint has chipped off, at first I think they're crumbs, but nope, its the fake wood from the chair showing through. I thoroughly regret this purchase (I ordered 2 sets, for a total of 4) and would suggest you not experience what I have and find other chairs!
