These chairs came in good condition and on time. There was some assembly required and which was more easily done as a two person job. I bought these for a shore property - blue and white stripe-and they are perfect! The chairs are somewhat smaller allowing more chairs to be placed around the table. I sprayed them with scotch guard since I want to protect them against spills. The material is a lower grade but looks just fine and the price cannot be beat! Very pleased with the purchase.
