These chairs are NOT your as seen everywhere resin chairs (that have been known to bend or buckle under some larger family members)! They are WAY BETTER super sturdy,well made,high quality,handsome,comfortably sized (and can hold large people). I had a similar set years ago from a company that no longer exists and have been seeking a replacement for a very long time many look the part but are inferior. These are by far even better then my former set. I am so pleased. You will not be disappointed.
