I like this chair. Things to note, is that it is heavier than it looks. So it is well made. That said, due to it's weight, it is difficult to move in and out from the table it is at as there is no convenient spot to grasp from and the wood back is slick so the grip is not the best. A small gripe and I'm not sure how you would solve it without compromising the aesthetics of the design, or the quality of the material/construction. After almost a year of use around my office, there is only some mild scuffing. But it remains sturdy as the day it was assembled.
