These chairs were better than expected. I had been looking for a metal dining chair to go with a table my mother had custom made that had a wrought iron base. I ordered 2 sets of these- giving me 8 seats. I was very happy at how quickly they arrived, and how easy they were to put together. I was even happier when I saw a major chain store advertising them at twice the price! They are heavier than i expected and just the right height...  couldnt be happier wih my choice!
