My husband and I just did a major kitchen remodel and needed 5-6 new chairs for our island. I went to some retail stores to look at chairs, my favorite set was $300 for two chairs. After spending a lot on our new kitchen I didn't want to drop another thousand on chairs. These Jaden chairs I bought on Amazon have been excellent! Here are a few thoughts:
-Comfort: Since we eat almost all our meals at our island, I wanted comfortable chairs. These are extremely comfortable to sit in for long periods of time. We have had some house parties and everyone gather around the island sitting in these chairs. Multiple people have commented on how comfortable they are. These are so much better than most other non-padded chairs we looked at and way better than bar stools. The foot bar is at a very comfortable height for sitting for a long period of time.
-Appearance: I love how nice these look. They match my mocha/espresso cabinets perfectly and go well with our black/gray/brown kitchen colors. The wood all looks nice and the chairs overall don't look cheap.
-Quality: These are excellent quality considering they cost 1/3 as much as the chairs I was looking at in the store. They feel sturdy and are well made. I did get one chair of the 6 I've bought that had some issues with the finish. I contacted Amazon and they came up with a satisfactory resolution.
-Assembly: My husband assembled these fairly quickly. The first set took about 25 minutes, the other two sets took about 15 minutes since he knew exactly what he was doing. He did have an issue with the screw length, where he had to remove the screws because he put the wrong length of one in. Just make sure you knew which screw goes where before you get started.
I have no regrets about buying these chairs. My full set of these cost about what a two pack was somewhere else. They make it comfortable to eat our meals at the island, especially since we sold our old kitchen table and haven't replaced it yet. I did put felt pads on the bottom so they don't scratch my flooring. I have no hesitation recommending these chairs.
July 2016 update: Still no issues and still loving them just as much as when we first got them. Our island is our primary dining table and we have no issues using these chairs as our daily eating chairs. We get compliments on how comfy they are and how great they look.
June 2018: These are still perfect! We've had no issues at all and people still comment on how comfy they are and how nice they look. We are most definitely happy with this purchase!
