Purchased 6 of these chairs to go with the Extendable table. The chairs are solid! The material is true to color and is of nice quality. The way the chairs are upholstered is very nice (no strings hanging out anywhere). The chairs are FIRM. It's not a bad thing and would probably be the same if you ordered all wood chairs, but I thought having a fabric chair would be a little softer. I'm assuming with time the seats will break in. I will be ordering 2 more of these chairs to use when the leaf is in the table.
