Jessie I bought these based on the reviews that said they don't look like folding chairs, and I have to agree. They look good and feel solid, no shifting around. They're lightweight but you can also just plop down in them and they don't make a sound or give at all. They're very comfortable to sit in and lean back on, and a good height. The only downside is the backs of the chairs, the finishing is a bit puckered and the quality is just not as good. One of the chairs was also surprisingly difficult to unfold, and the instructions are in an awkward place that you can't really see when the chair is folded. Like the others reviews say, these chairs are a lot more brown than grey in person. The convenience of having folding chairs that look and function like normal chairs is definitely worth it, and I just bought a second set!
