Theyre ok,you get what you pay for I suppose.theyre adequate for kitchen chairs but not so for a loungedining room.i had the light grey which is a dull muddy grey.not as nice as the photos.they were easy to put together and seem pretty strong.the legs are made of steel but look plasticy due to being painted with a dull black coating.the seat part is made from some sort of hard moulded foam,covered in suede type upholstery fabric.i think if they get any marks on them they will  be impossible to clean.ill give them a chance though,see what theyre like after 6 months...
