At the "73% off" price of about $40 for the FOUR stools (which came already assembled) this is a superb deal. The seats are a bit bigger in diameter than the more expensive ones that I had and the resultant proportions aren't as nice...but the larger surface may be preferable for use as a side table. They look fine enough and seem sturdy.  They could be good to just stack and have ready if you need them for extra seating when you have guests, but I've found other uses for my four -- plant table, side table, kitchen stool, etc. I want a couple to have white tops so I'm going to paint them.
