The smell of them was so overwhelming that I had to leave them outdoors overnight to air out. Today I assembled them and it was difficult. They are together and I will never again take assembled furniture for granted. 
I am happy with them and will scotch guard the fabric for use in my breakfast room.  A table and chairs was my first internet purchase and I will probably not do this again. I am a person who needs to see and experience my furniture to understand if it will work in my life.

Pros: Beautiful charcoal linen upholstery, heavy and well constructed. A great price for a pair.
Cons: Very overwhelming manufacturing smell. I had to air them out outdoors. Many pieces and parts to assemble and super fiddly.
