They are very nice, the backrest does tip forward just a bit. The stand is a dark grey, I thought it was black from the picture. I like them a lot. They work well for my space.

EDIT I have had these chairs for 2 months now and we were away for a month so they have not been used very much.  Today I see there is a small hole in the fabric and I am very disappointed. I love the chairs but the quality appears to be poor.
