Purchased these chairs gray and we love the texture the weaved back brings to the room.  They are  interesting, and while I (5'3 in) am more comfortable with a small pillow behind my back, my husband (5'9 in) says it's perfect without one. We paired them with the Dominguez Faux leather bench and Brandsmere Dining table in our breakfast nook.  Very easy to put together according to my handyman husband. Love it!
