Was very doubtful ordering chairs over the internet, but we could not find caster chairs in any of our local furniture stores. When we went looking art van and gardner-white sales people told us we would never find what we were looking for, that manufactures quit making caster dining chairs years ago. These are wonderful chairs! They are sturdy, nicely padded and comfortable. They look great in our dining room and the oak on the chairs matches our oak table. My family is definitely not on the skinny side, yet we all fit in the chairs with no problem. There was very little assembly to them, just to put the bases on the pedestals, and that was no problem. The chairs were delivered right to our front door, and the delivery person even helped get them in the house, so you couldn't ask for anything easier. I love the fabric on the chairs, it blends in with any thing. Looking forward to having these around for awhile.
