At first we were worried the chairs wouldn't be sturdy enough, but that is not the case. They easily support up to a 170 pound person. We like that they are lightweight and easy to move. The swivel feature works smoothly and the round bar at the bottom is a great place to rest your feet. We wanted backs to our chairs and these were just high enough. The chairs look amazing in our black, grey, and white newly remodeled kitchen. The red is a perfect accent color!
