After months of searching for just the right chairs, I finally gave in and decided to order online. When the chairs arrived, the boxes were pretty banged up, but  to my surprise, the chairs were undamaged. It took me and my husband a couple of hours to put them all together and a few of the holes didn't match up perfectly, but we still managed (with a little muscle) to screw them together. They look as good as the chairs I was going to buy from a major chain (P1) except they were nearly 1/2 the price! The only issue I had was on 1 of the 8 chairs, one of the legs was uneven causing it to wobble a little; that was easily fixed with a felt furniture tab under that leg. NOTE: When you remove the chairs from the boxes, do so carefully because all of the nuts and bolts are stored under the seat of the chair (beneath the Velcro liner) and the bags of bolts are not sealed so they fall everywhere when you pull the pieces out of the boxes. Great buy for the price. I would definitely recommend.
