Great chairs for the price. I have been looking for the right chairs for my new dining room table and many of the ones I liked were over 600 each. I was thrilled to find these for around 100 each! The seats are pretty firm but the backs are very comfortable. They are faux rattan but look like wood. Super easy to assemble. Had one wonky leg but I know Wayfair will send a replacement. Very happy with my purchase!
