Perfection! It took me more time to get the stool unpacked than to assemble it! Easy, easy assembly and less than 4 minutes to complete! The stools are solid, mechanisms are smooth, the bentwood is beautiful and the seats are extremely comfortable! At their highest, they are the perfect height for an adult to sit at my snack bar. When at the lowest, they work beautifully as additional seating at the dining table. I finally decided on the cream color, and although it is slightly more beige-toned in low light, in natural light, the cream is ideal with my color palette! I may need to buy more!
