I bought these to use for my business  setup on location at craft fairs and market days. I need them to be light, portable, and small but sturdy. I also need them to be comfortable to get into and out of constantly all day. I have used them once and been pleased so far. They fold and unfold quickly easily without being too noisy.  They are easy to carry 2 at a time, which is important for my mobile setup days. They do not take up too much space in my often limited display area, which is important for me. They are not the most expensive looking chairs, but they feel sturdy. They fit my needs well right now, and I hope they will last.
