These are very pretty chairs that look more expensive than they really were. They have a sophisticated look that doesn't look like  a 'patio' chair which is what I was looking for. They arrived well packaged and in great condition and stack nicely. My only complaint is that they are much darker than the photo (a dark espresso color) and I was looking for a richer dark brown to match a table I purchased.  According to directions, you don't want to store them in weather so I am a little concerned about longevity too.
