This was a great purchase for me! I moved into an apartment with a decent island and wanted to make the most of it. Shipped fast, it was easy to assemble (literally 3-5 minutes per chair) and could be assembled with one person. Im 50 and about 140 pounds and these chairs are able to accommodate my little legs reaching the ground. My roommate is 63 and about 250 pounds, and they hold him up with stability. The seat cushions themselves are comfortable, and the base is wide enough that the seats provide stability.
