I've had two of these chairs for a few weeks. They arrived on time, well packaged, pretty easy to put together- it took about 35 minutes (it would have been even easier if I had read the instructions first and didn't use the wrong size screws and then had to undo and start over). We are using the chairs at the kitchen island, a couple times a day.  The chairs are in good shape ( no scratches on the finish)  and are on the heavy side  which I  like. My only dislike is that after using the chairs for about three weeks, I can tell the screws are getting lose and need tightening. I am not looking forward to tightening screws every few weeks. However, given the price and the quality of the product I am happy.
