Winsome Wood Benjamin Seating, Foot Rest, Walnut, FURNITURE

Well made with some very nice design touches
I was surprised at the quality of these chairs. They are solid wood with no false veneers. The finish is complete and even and the design is perfect – for instance, the front and rear legs curve out out a tiny bit and add an eye-pleasing touch to the design. The back slats are solid and curved and thick. The seats are not flat and have a slight carved depression inj them for comfort.Because of the solid wood, the chairs are pretty hefty and have a real quality feel to them. I would guess that they weigh about 14 pounds each. Nice touch: the legs have plastic gliders attached to them.Assembly is straightforward with pictorial instructions and it is important to group the different sized bolts together for easy reference before you start. Two boxes of bolts and washers were in the package and scared me at first because it looked like the box I opened was missing some hardware – but when I opened the second box, I found that all the hardware was actually complete. In fact, there were a couple of spare bolts and washers included. Assembly time was about 20 minutes for the first chair (this included verifying the hardware and getting familiar with instructions) and ten minutes for the second chair.They supply a ball-ended hex key tool for assembly and it allows you to tighten some of the bolts at an angle where the clearance is a little tight. Good thinking on the manufacturer’s part! The only other tool you’ll need is a phillips head screwdriver to install the wood screws in the rungs on the bottom the the chairs.As noted in other reviews, make sure to loosely fasten the legs in the beginning so that you have plenty of clearance to insert the rungs before tightening. And don’t over tighten – just make sure the bolts are nice and firm.Overall, a really nice couple of quality chairs. Well, made with some very nice design touches.

Good Chairs
Read The Whole Review!!! These chair are well made for the money, I bought them as a gift. I looked in the local stores and could find nothing like these, anything comparable was at least twice the money. Lowes will order these for you but they cost more and they Do Not have the service that Amazon does!!! That being said, I did have a couple problems. First, one of the rear legs/vertical supports was split with the grain of the wood. It wasn’t damaged, just split slightly from shrinking! Second, you need to pay close attention to the lower spindles, one of them was bowed/bent quite badly. It straitened up a bit after we had unpacked the chairs and the wood had time to acclimate to the environment but I still had to get it replaced.The third thing, which really is not a problem, is that the chairs do come only partially assembled. I liked this because it allowed me to put them together where I could make sure they don’t come apart in the future but for someone who wants or needs something fully assembled, stick to the furniture store! The packaging was very good and the chairs had No damage from shipping as a result! In regard to the problems I had, I contacted Amazon and they had a new set on my doorstep in two days, lightning fast service with minimal efforts on my part. They took care of everything and I couldn’t be happier with their service! My chairs didn’t include the instructions, so here are some tips:I’d recommend using a ‘semi-flexible’ liquid epoxy, one that you mix up yourself, to put the legs and spindles together with, or something equivalent that ‘bites’ into the wood! Also, scrape or lightly sand the finish from the ends of the spindles, about a 1/2″ or so to help the epoxy adhere to the wood! Regular wood glue or regular wood epoxy will dry too brittle and will become useless! Gorilla glue is strong but is made to expand 3x’s, so it will keep running out of the spindle holes and down the chair legs for a while. Just use the epoxy! Gorilla, 3m, Loctite, etc. are all good brands of epoxy to use. The rear legs are all one piece and are fully together with the back supports already assembled. The seat and front legs are all separate and will need to be bolted together with the rear legs/back support, all necessary hardware is included as is the Allen wrench you’ll need! The four side spindles and the one front spindle are loose and packaged separately, the rear spindle is already pre-installed in between the rear legs and back support section. Three of the five spindles come pre-drilled for the (included) wood screws to be inserted. These are to be placed in the LOWER (closest to the floor) holes between the front and rear legs on the right and left sides and between the two front legs. Do not over tighten! You will need a #2 Phillips screwdriver for these screws, it is not included!

Las sillas están bien hechas, faciles de armar y se ven resistentes.El color es un poco más rojizo, como el de las fotos de la descripción de producto, pero las voy a pintar así que no me afectó en nada.En general muy buen producto.

De muy buen material
