The wood is smooth the seat is wide and deep. It fits both my 8 years kid and adults. However, this assembly process is horrible. The seat does not come with pre-drilled holes. We needed to drill the screws into woods, and the they got loose easily. I fear to pull the chair using one hand as the seat and frames may fall apart…The chairs are not expensive but I doubt how long it may last for.

Very nice sturdy chairs for my toddlers.

Super sturdy. Adults can sit in the chair without it creaking or feeling unsteady. Nice weight to them but kiddo can still move around.
