I don't usually write product reviews, but I have been severely disappointed and shocked by our experience with these chairs. They began breaking within months of our purchase, although still usable for the 1st year. As we put them out this season to use for only the 2nd summer, they are completely falling apart. The pieces are breaking, super dry and if you dare sit on them, they break completely. The product appears to have positive reviews, which is why we purchased, but our experience has been anything but positive.
