These chairs are as expected. A little pricey for “plastic” chairs - I got them figuring they would be easy to clean while my kids are young and messy…. If I didn’t have kids, or if they are older, I would get black wood ones instead, because they are “flimsy”. I put the chairs together myself and did find the instructions rather difficult to follow - weren’t very clear. However I eventually figured it out and all is fine.
