I bought these chairs in white with the matching table, and I have to say it is the best looking kids set that I've seen. And I have looked at many, many sets online. There is no assembly required for the chairs, minimal for the table. All are metal so they are very heavy, so minimal tipping hazard and not easy for little kids to move around. I am a petite adult female and can sit in the chairs. The only negative is that, since they are metal it is very loud when the kids bang on them or when other toys get bounced off of them.
