I purchased these chairs as an accent to the Portfolio Chesterfield Grey Velvet Loveseat that I got from Great Offer Stock. They are beyond gorgeous, and very sturdy. They were extremely easy to assemble, which is wonderful for a single woman who is not too handy. One thing I really loved, too, is that they came with every thing needed to assemble- I didn't even need to get out my toolkit. Do note, though, that despite the title saying these are navy, they are actually more royal blue/deep real. I listened to the comments, and I am glad that I did, as this is exactly what I was going for.
