I purchased seven of these chairs - they are placed around the island in my kitchen. We use these chairs daily. They are super comfortable and very sturdy. I was happy to find them on Wayfair at a fraction of the price I may have paid at another store. 

When you first pull the chairs out and sit on them they creak LOUDLY. You will feel like the chair is about to fall apart underneath you (which is a great trick to play on others). Once they've been sat in however, they no longer creak and appear to hold up well under all sorts of weight.
