Only taking away a star because on one of the chairs has a leg significantly shorter than all the rest so it wobbles. Will be contacting wayfair in the morning to see what can be done. 
The chairs will be used for dining room chairs but we're so comfortable they're one of the first pieces I put together in the new place and people use them as just regular conversation seating.
I didn't get a chance to see the antique gold color before I ordered them and antique gold looks a lot like taupe-- but it's still a neutral and all good. 
They're not soft at all which is perfect for a dining room chair.
