I just have to reduce my rating and update my review of these chairs. I wanted very much to like them because I very much like the way that they look; clean lines, low profile, seem to be comfortable.
However, these chairs just dont hold up to everyday wear and tear. The fabric on the seat burnishes and turns a lighter shade of yellow, the chair arms just dont have that smooth even roll to them that more expensive chairs would have, and although this has nothing to do with the chairs themselves or the design thereof, for whatever reason, sitting in then does aggravate the arthritis in my left hip.
In retrospect, I would have chosen chairs that were more upscale and expensive than these, and that I would have been able to use in my living room for far longer before they became worn and shabby.

This chair has a low profile and a very interesting design, I especially like the arms and they kind of remind me of a tailored Japanese look. Having never seen one in the wild, I was a little afraid that the chairs would appear diminutive rather than simply having a small footprint, but that wasnt the case. These chairs work equally well in the middle of the room as they do against the wall.
While the chairs are comfortable, and I imagine they would remain comfortable throughout an evening, they do not invite lounging. Given that these are overflow seating in my living room, that works perfectly for me.
Very nice chair
