These chairs are easy to assemble and when put together correctly, they are surprisingly sturdy. We are tall (6 ft and taller) and they just fit without feeling too small.  For the money, these chairs are a nice-looking, comfortable addition to our living room. Once we buy the rest of our living room furniture, we hopefully won’t use them as much as we are currently. The fabric seems durable and we will “scotch-guard” to help prevent any future staining.
