After reading the reviews I was a bit nervous to purchase all 6 chairs because I wasn’t sure what the color was; but the color is perfect. It’s blue with just a hint of seafoam. I was looking for a pop of color in our dining room and this is exactly what I was looking for. Since we have young children we wanted to make sure we protected the seats so I purchased from another store some clear plastic covers. The assembly was relatively easy for my husband. The chair are the perfect night for our farmhouse table and seem to be sturdy.
