I question the term “wide” in the description of these swivel barrel chairs. They’re quite small in size and sit very low to the floor. If that’s what you’re looking for, they should work for your needs. I had high hopes for these, especially after searching both online and in brick and mortar stores for stylish, quality, standard size accent chairs for our living room. Overall the construction and fabric isn’t bad but certainly not high quality. Unfortunately, it seems that more times than not the consumer simply doesn’t get what they expect OR pay for and this is an example of that. There were some issues as well as minor damage incurred during shipping. Wayfair’s customer service reps were great about responding and resolving the situation immediately and certainly to my satisfaction. That aside, these aren’t chairs that I recommend buying.
