"I wanted to love these chairs but if I had to do it again I'd order another type of chair. While the styling is great, the under-chair storage area functions like a big crumb, dirt and dust catcher, and the paint is starting to wear after 2 years (esp. the red paint). Granted, I have two very active 4-year-olds and we use these at their craft table where they sometimes have snacks, so maybe they would work better in a situation where there was less mess and activity."
