Everything I expected and more. I'd been looking for a set of comfortable, STYLISH chairs for our bedroom. The furniture stores in SoCal all carry the same ugly furniture. I wasn't interested in buying furniture online. I wanted to see them, sit in them and then decide. After finding the chairs online, I was still skeptical. After talking to the sales rep, and found out that I could turn them for any reason, I placed the order. They are beautiful, comfortable and well made. I'm remodeling our master bedroom and my wife is sparing no expense. I'll be remoldeling our den in a few months and in the middle of choosing new pieces. I didn't bother looking anywhere else.
