We bought these chairs to go with the smaller of the two Blox table. We saw this set up at the store and even though the chairs are definitely different in terms of style, I fell in love with them after sitting in them. We ordered them and they were delivered to our home. They fit perfectly under the table. Very add an industrial/modern touch to the more rustic looking Blox table.
I know people have complained of snags but we haven't experienced this yet. Hopefully we won't. The construction and colors are great.

Modern and comfortable
Date:02/23/2013
These chairs are a delight alongside the blox dinging table. They are very comfortable. We inspected them upon delivery and they were perfect. A few weeks later I noticed on both chairs that one of the wires are broken. The break is located where your back rests so I am concerned about it stabbing into someone or tearing their clothes. I am calling cb2 regarding the issue today.
The delivery was on time and the men were helpful in placing all the furniture. Overall we are very happy with the look and comfort of these chairs.

Love the look of this chair
Date:02/22/2013
I love the look of this chair and I think it is comfortable as well, depsite what you would think. However, my children do not find it comfortable and tell me all the time! They find it hurts when they sit in them for a long time and they find them a bit low. I do have to admit, I wish they were taller/straighter but I still love them.

These chairs are one of the few non-thrift/vintage pieces in my house. They look great with my heavy craftsman oak dining table. I sewed up thin chair pads in a bright orange print, which really brightens them up. I have to admit I don't sit in them very often or for very long. But they are comfortable when I do, and they look fabulous!

Use it in the living room
Date:01/29/2013
Although this is advertized as a dining chair, we bought two for our living room. We needed additional seating in a small space and wanted something that would not detract from the decor in the rest of the room. The chairs work well--just wish there was a lower-seat version that looked a little less like a dining chair. The chairs are more comfortable than they look.

Dissapointed
Date:01/21/2013
I love the look of these chairs and how they fit with my dining table perfectly. And they are very comfortable to sit in, but the woven metal design caused some problems. I cut my fingers on the sharp ends of the metal when I went to pull a chair out from the table. And a friend caught her sweater on the weave and it tore when she stood up. Overall I was so frustrated that I returned them.

Very cool chairs
Date:09/10/2012
We bought these to go with the smaller Blox table, which they look amazing with. They tie in very well with our reclaimed/industrial metal and wood shelves. Quality is great. What makes them comfortable is that the wires are molded in a curved shape and the fact that you're not sitting on a fully solid surface. As a rather bony person, sitting on any hard chair for a long time can start to hurt! The one aspect that makes them uncomfortable is the fact that you're sitting on wires. If you're wearing jeans, it's a no-nevermind. If you're wearing pants made of a thin material or a girl wearing shorts, the wires WILL leave impressions on your legs and start to get uncomfortable. My solution for this is to get up when I'm done eating and sit on the couch instead!

Lovely chairs
Date:09/10/2012
I have 3 of these barstool chairs for at least 6 months now, they are great. They are very beautiful looking and would go with both a modern or vintage decor. They are well made and sturdy piece of furniture and they are a good price. The only down side is sitting in them for a long period of time can get uncomfotable due to the wire design. They are great as barstools!

Great chairs!

Used these chairs in a decorating project and was simly amazed at how well they are made;how comfortable they are; and how versatile they are tying either a modern, traditional; or transitional scheme together. Downside is the shipping cost.

Beautiful and Artistic
Date:08/08/2012
We bought 4 of these chairs to go with a wood C&B table. The mix of wood and metal was awesome and the room has the right mid-century and ecclectic mix. They were more comfortable than I thought they would be.

CB2 Reed Chairs are awesome!
Date:07/30/2012
I love, love, love these chairs! Much more comfortable than I ever imagined, really great quality and so lovely to look at. I paired them with a reclaimed teak wood table to tie them in with my eclectic collection of wood furnishings and they work so well together!

Paired four or the reed zinc chairs with the odyssey white dining table and they look great together! I've had my eye on this chair for quite sometime. Sturdy and well made. Comfortable even without a cushion, fits to shape of your body. So happy : )

With these chairs online and took a chance on ordering them without having a chance to try them out. I am thrilled with them, and they look fantastic with a variety of styles. I paired mine with a dining table from CB2, and get lots of compliments on their unique look. Still in love with them and expect to have them a long time, since they are so versatile.

These chairs are so good looking. And as others have said, they are surprisingly comfortable. They go perfectly with the Dylan table. It was disappointing that they were on backorder... possibly because they are popular. Delivery went very well. Great purchase.
I purchased my chairs about a year ago and still love them. The reason for the four stars is for me personal, I am short, and need a little extra height to be at the table just right. Most of the time it isn't an issue but when I do need it I just sit on a pillow. The other thing to consider if interested is that these are metal so when you first sit down it can be cold but since it's thin pieces of metal all strung together they warm up quick. I went to the store with another chair to purchase in mind but these were with the table I was buying and looked amazing. After sitting in several chairs I couldn't pass up the comfort of the reed chair.

We ordered two of these chairs for our ulta modern office. They really added just the right touch. They are contempory but would fit just as well with other styles. They are reasonable comfortable for a chair that isn't padded.
I had been looking for modern, wire chairs for my dining room table for a while. These were the best price and I love the look. They are more comfortable than you would ever imagine and they look great. My only concern is that they are not quite at a 90 degree angle so when you are sitting at the table they lean back a bit more than you would want. Still good for the dining room, but great for office and other chair purposes when you don't need to be sitting perfectly upright.
