I continue to get teary-eyed at how wonderful and perfect these chairs are. They look just as they do in the pictures and can really pull a room together with an elegant but modern touch. Best of all, they were incredibly easy to assemble -- even in a post-midnight state after arriving home from an overseas flight. Actually, even better than the easy assembly is how easy it is to clean. Being true to myself, I got a makeup stain on one chair a couple of weeks into owning them, and it came off easily with whatever solution I had around my kitchen. In summary, these are simply gorgeous and well worth every penny.
