This chair, for this price, seemed too good to be true. But as it turns out, it's really nice! The one thing that initially scared us as we put it together (easy!) was how low to the ground it seemed. Once the seat cushion is in place, it's not as low as we feared. They are perfect chairs for our little summer cottage! SO cute and comfy! However, I will say that these chairs are not for a huge space like a "great room" where they'd look funny and dwarfed. Also, an old person might have some challenges getting up out of the chair.
