These chair covers are exactly what I wanted, and they will look great in our renovated eat-in kitchen. I was happy to find that they fit our rather tall dining room chairs (the package says they fit chairs up to 42"); my concern was that the tall backs on our chairs would spoil the seat alignment. They don't--it's perfect. I'll need to be careful not to shrink them, though. As others have mentioned, the stripes aren't as noticeable as they appear in the photos online, but the fabric is lovely.
