Depends.

They're kinda flexy - So for larger/heavier folks, they don't feel very solid...
...but they're much more comfortable than the backless benches that so many people are subjecting their guests to!

Thanks!

I found them very comfortable but I'm avg. size. The issue I had been cautioned about was that they can easily get scratched by back pocket embellishments. Additionally, they do require special cleaner for acrylic furniture so can't use any cleaning products.

I agree with kkfisch's latter comments. I have one I use for my office chair. I'm on the smaller side and it feels hard/not super comfortable to me, but I bought it more for looks! Some people put custom cushions on theirs.

I cant tell if the chairs draw attention to or away from the table...

yes they are

I am not sure about comfortable but for sure if you have kids you're gonna be wiping a lot
