I would have loved these chairs if there had been more quality control. The are heavy, so not likely to tip over. The padding on the chairs is perfect and comfortable. But, the paint finish, oh my, it is BAD. I can handle a distressed look. What I can't handle are chunks in the paint. Every chair looks like somebody blew black gravel on the paint while it was wet. Not all over, but three or four spots on every single chair. Apparently there is no inspection process wherever these chairs are made. I'm assuming my chairs are a fluke. The chairs would be a great purchase otherwise.
