They look very nice, but are pretty stiff and make some creaking noises when you sit in them. I'm hoping the creaking will resolve as they get broken in. Hopefully I'll be able to provide an update in a couple months. I knew from previous review that the cushion doesn't offer much relief, so I planned to get them anyways and eventually invest in another cushion. Thinking I may also add a back pillow at some point too to increase comfort, but really I got them for the look, to change the feel of an older dining set and I am happy with their ability to meet that intent.
