Bought these chairs to go with my rustic farm style table.  Had them about a month and a half and so far they are holding up well despite our destructive toddler.  They aren't very heavy chairs, but plenty sturdy and love the design and clean lines.  FYI: the black paint did leave a mark on our wall when it was rubbed against it gently (didn't hurt the chair, just the wall paint).  Great value for dining chairs.
