happygirlcny says "Chair quality less than rest of the dining pieces in collection" about Essential Home Windsor Chair

We spent months looking for a quality kitchen table set and the prices of course are very high on such furniture... I came across this set - on a great sale ( table, bench, and 4 chairs we purchased) about 7 months ago and we have been very happy with it!! It is all real wood, which was a must, and the color is beautiful. I had looked at similar styles, in furniture stores... tons more expensive and I don't think that they are any 'better' than this one! The table and bench are both sturdy and solid; constructed with quality. However, I have to mention that the 4 chairs, although they look great, are not sturdy. This is the only drawback, but considering the price, I am still satisfied with them. We are a family of 3, with a 4 yr old, and we are not 'hard' on our furniture, but these chairs seemed to loosen up quite quickly and I am a little shocked that in comparison to the bench and table that more care in the assembly was not used. I think that we can 'sturdy them up' with our......

These chairs go perfectly with my home essential table. They are low in price and gives you the option of how many you want....

delancy says "Very poor quality" about Essential Home Windsor Chair

I bought 4 chairs and returned them all within a few days. I simply leaned back in one chair, as anyone would do in a chair, and the back supporters cracked with minimal pressure. The next day they began to break completely through. I loved the look of the chairs but the quality was so poor. I would not recommend the chairs unless you are planning to use them lightly or not at all.

CashStrappedMom says "Nice looking " about Essential Home Windsor Chair

I'm just giving these chairs a 3 star because they are just average chairs. We've had them for a year and do have to fix a crossbar on one of the chairs because it has fallen out of the peghole. However, we bought them just to have additional chairs to add to our oak dining room set. For $30 a chair, I'm not really complaining. I'm happy. The chairs are a nice compliment to the oak dining set.

blackcat725 says "They look great, but really poor quality" about Essential Home Windsor Chair

blackcat725 — Fri, 11 Sep 2009 22:11:05 GMT

I have to agree with many of the reviews here. I've had four of these chairs almost 2 years and all of them are wiggly and wobbly. One broke within a month and we exchanged it and now they are all getting loose. I love the table and the bench, but these chairs just aren't going to last. I'm thinking of taking my old (50+ years) chairs and stripping and painting them to match this table. I'm really disappointed.

WMBarber says "Good looking, not very strong" about Essential Home Windsor Chair

kmart-feed — Mon, 16 Mar 2009 12:15:04 GMT

they match the table we got from kmart and look very good together as a set, but they are already wiggling after a few months use, not sure how long they are going to last. wish they had better quality chairs to choose from that matched the table, it is perfect for our needs...

MrsB says "Not Happy..." about Essential Home Windsor Chair

kmart-feed — Sat, 21 Feb 2009 03:30:04 GMT

I purchased 6 chairs and the matching Farmhouse table about a year ago. I have 1 good chair left. All the others have either broken legs or the dowls on the backs have come out. These are NOT repairable and I am out a lot of money. We have tried every glue imaginable, screws, and nails. Nothing fixes them. Think twice before buying these. They look great but are not functionable....

Dobby says "great for the price" about Essential Home Windsor Chair

kmart-feed — Wed, 21 Jan 2009 04:15:04 GMT

I wanted something that would contrast in my dining room, without costing me an arm and a leg. I have growing children and they are extremely hard on furniture. I have been nothing but pleased. I wanted something inexpensive that would withstand the daily use we give it. i have been very pleased....

4040 says "Be careful" about Essential Home Windsor Chair

kmart-feed — Thu, 06 Nov 2008 05:45:04 GMT

Be careful, these chairs look great and worked well with my existing table; but they are not made very well. About a month after we purchased 4 chairs, two of them had broken legs, right at the base of the seat. Not something you can fix, because they are only glued in. Other then that thay look good, but not very sturdy construction....

SAHM08 says "pretty isnt always perfect" about Essential Home Windsor Chair

kmart-feed — Tue, 26 Aug 2008 12:45:06 GMT

This set was a total STEAL and i do love it but i have company every sat night and the chairs just cant hold up 2 have already broken. Seems as tho there just isnt enough being held together the chairs are so wobbly. If u dont have company often and ur looking for something pretty and afordable go with this.... if u are someone who is looking to entertain buy the table but id spend the extra money on some sturdy chairs that match instead of these....

KSlice says "Great Chairs" about Essential Home Windsor Chair

I did read the other reviews about the chairs having glue on them. They do have a wax like residue on the legs of the chairs. For the price, however, it is worth the effort to clean them up. They come pre-assembled. All you have to do is open a box, take them out, clean them up a little, and you have wonderful chairs for a great price....

Mom2abeagle says "You get what you pay for" about Essential Home Windsor Chair

kmart-feed — Mon, 19 May 2008 10:30:21 GMT

I purchased 6 chairs and the matching table. Chairs were sticky with glue and the paint chips extremely easy. (Keep a black marker handy)I have a feeling that chairs will get wobbly within a short time. But for 25.00 a chair what do you expect ??? I wish I could just have this in my dining room to look at and not use everyday. Because it is a stunning set if you don't have to use it daily....

CTKMartShopper says "Farmhouse Windsor Chair" about Essential Home Windsor Chair

kmart-feed — Wed, 19 Mar 2008 14:30:24 GMT

I saw this dining room set on sale at my local KMart and fell in love with it, but before I bought it I checked out the reviews. Most people loved the table and the bench but I noticed the poor review of the chairs because of all the glue that was left on the legs etc. Sure enough the chairs I saw at our local store were the same and looked sloppily made. I got them any way thinking I could fix them up and sure enough my husband noticed the thick film seemed waxy. So with a soft cloth , some Pledge polish and a little light scraping with a finger nail all this residue came off! I believe this is just the remains of the mfg. process and either helps harden the glue or helps keep it from drying out. Once polished the chairs are as beautiful as the bench and table and we got them all at an excellent price!...

CountryGal says "Windsor Chairs" about Essential Home Windsor Chair

kmart-feed — Sun, 09 Mar 2008 14:00:15 GMT

This is a very pretty set. The table is sturdy and just beautiful. But, the problem was when we opened the boxes for the chairs. We purchased 4 chairs (two to a box) I ended up only wanting to keep 1 chair!!! 1 chair was of rating high 3 to possibly 4 stars. The other chairs, wow!! I immediately put one back in box it's spindles were not even completely in back of chair and left not painted black and on the bottom it was split in the wood in a piece when it was assembled obviously (like pressure split with hitting / pushing). The other two chairs are just covered in glue!! The entire bottom legs, rungs, etc. have glue residue so thick you can see it from across the room. Now, I had a hard decision here. We live in a rural area, it is a pain to take these back. But, I told my husband that I wasn't even sure what would take all that glue off and I was sure it would also take off the black paint or whatever it is on the chair too and WHY SHOULD I BE THE ONE to do all this?????????? So, they......
