Beautiful chairs. Surprisingly soft to the touch in the best way. Unlike other reviews, we didn't find the seats hard at all, but maybe it's because it's everything we've been looking for: firm seat that don't dip in or sink to the back; true to picture perfect gray meaning if you painted gray on the wall and it dried a shade (or two) darker, that it - just like the picture; the slightly curved back actually has you sitting straight with the wings there to allow you to lean if/when possible; quick set up - wooden legs came in a zippered compartment under the seat with all bakers dozen screws and an allen wrench; impeccable weight capacity. We have no complaints and would would definitely purchase again if needed. To each, his own, but this was definitely made for us.
