Got these chairs on sale for cheap, so I was a little skeptical about them and after reading other reviews I was dreading putting them together. That being said these are the nicest dining room chairs I have ever owned. Building them all took less than 20 minutes so I am not sure why other reviews said it took all day because it was a breeze! Just a few bolts, nothing too complicated. They are very sturdy and are holding up nicely. We use them every day and they have even been put through a few dinner parties. The best part about these chairs is that they look like ones that cost over a hundred dollars a piece and many times people have asked if they were. I would absolutely recommend​ these chairs!
