I love these
We have now owned these chairs for a year. We were nervous about their durability because of other reviews, but they've held up super well.
We do have one dented chair because someone who had metal buttons on their pants sat in it. Keep in mind that this will happen with any real, softer wood table and chairs - it's the nature of the wood, and NOT a sign of poor quality.
After a year of using these chairs everyday they're still in great shape, and we're hoping to buy more! (we bought only enough to seat while the table is not extended).
We've had no problem with the finish as others have stated.

Great chair
We purchased four of these side chairs to go with a table that has been in our family for years, so it was hard to get an exact match. But these lovely chairs complement the table beautifully. I love their beautiful lines and their finish!

Dent easily
Chairs dent easily when pushed into table. Would highly recommend purchasing cushions for chairs as scratches show very easily.
Chairs seems lower quality than the Kipling table.

Beautiful dining set!
My husband and I purchased the Kipling sideboard, table and buffet about three months ago. It's an elegant addition to our home and has received many compliments. We have had no problems with the finish scratching - and we have cats! The furniture is sturdy and well-made. I would highly recommend.

Not kid friendly
I wish I'd seen the review from milman517 below. I have a 3 year old and also used a soft foam booster seat and the finish rubbed off. The wood is easily scratched too. Very disappointing because I love the color of this set but I wouldn't recommend it for a family with young kids.

Gorgeous Chairs
About 2 months ago, we purchased the Kipling dining table and 8 chairs. The chairs are truly beautiful and elegant. They have a comfortable arched back and feel supportive. For the first month, we used the bare chairs while we waited for the cushions to arrive. I would recommend buying the Crate & Barrel cushions that go with this set as they fit perfectly. There were 3 styles to choose from and we chose the beige striped ones. We use the table and chairs daily and have not had any problems with the finish or with scratching so far.

Disappointed
Very disappointed with the Kipling side chairs. We bought 8 of these along with the Kipling table a few years ago and have found them to be very uncomfortable and the finish to be very delicate. We placed a very soft foam booster cushion on one for our 3-year-old and the finish on the chair totally rubbed off after just a couple of uses. We don't have the cushions on these as we're certain that they'll rub the finish off of the chairs. For this price we were extremely disappointed with the poor durability and comfort. We hardley use the table and chairs because we're afraid they'll get ruined. Bad purchase and waste of our money for us.
