Which chairs for kitchen (IKEA)?

[whitemerlot]

The ones with the x are $10 less a chair and we need 10.

I prefer the ladder back chair.

We had considered both of those at one point, and they were much more comfortable (though we ultimately went with a different type).

[whitemerlot]

It is that table, in the stain of the chairs.

The taller chair.

[Deleted]

The higher one.

Neither? I don't really like the look of the table and chairs being the same wood tone. The x back chairs are sort of trendy right now, and I don't mind them but those look really narrow and uncomfortable.

[whitemerlot]

Second question. Will I get sick of the Hemnes in this color in my 6 year old son's room?

I find them pretty comfortable.

The ladder back will be sturdier since the have the bars on the legs.

[heythere]

I prefer the ladder back.


Also- love the hemnes in that color. I don't think I'd get sick of it in my kids' room.

I do wanted the navy Hemnes for DD's nursery but DH vetoed it.

I prefer the ladder back and considered both of those chairs for our dining room table but ultimately wound up getting the slipcovered parsons chairs. It is a dining room/ kitchen combo so I wanted a bit more formality.

We have the ones with the x in our kitchen and they are comfortable and very sturdy.

[elleblue]

Ladder back.

[whitemerlot]

Thanks everyone! I just spent $2000 at IKEA.

I got the ladder back chair, table, navy Hemnes, and a bed along with some misc like a lamp and light bulbs.

[lilac05]

That's what I would have bought, too!

I didn't realize the Hemnes came in navy. I'm trying to figure out where I can put that in my house now!

[mich1]

Whichever one is most comfortable.

I have the navy hemnes in N's nursery. I don't think we will get sick of it.

You won't get sick of it. We have navy furniture in DDs room and I love it!

They are discontinuing the navy. I bought the 8 drawer version, but they nightstand was not available. I'm disappointed about that.

My h is putting the dresser together right now and it looks cute!

We have the ones with the x and like them. What does your table look like? Is it the one pictured? If so, I prefer the ladder chair.

Eta: Saw your update. We have the navy Hemnes in DS's room. I think you'll really like it.
