The chairs (I purchased 3) arrived as promised and I really like them. I only gave 4 stars because of two reasons...the wood color is darker than pictured and I was really looking for something light, and 1 of the chairs had small cracks around one of the screws on the bottom which hold the cushion. The cracks don't look like they will affect the durability, and since you can't see the area without laying on the floor, I let it go. As for the color, I couldn't find chairs any lighter which I liked as well, and all told, these seem to be great chairs. Very comfortable, seeming sturdy (I have only had for a week), and a good buy for the money.
