Just assembled theses chairs and so far I am pleased with them. They are large enough for taller men to sit comfortably in and seem sturdy. The seat shape is quite comfortable. Directions were clear and assembly was not hard with two people. The color seems solid and I am hoping they will hold up well in the sun and humidity. I do have them on a covered porch. Only down side so far is how visible the stainless steel hardware is. Overall I am please!
