Theses barstools are the best barstools I have ever bought    I’ve been through several sets and these are by far the most comfortable, well made and and heavy duty.  They are all pretty much welded together and only four screws to install.  I would highly recommend these.  Plus you don’t need any felt pads for the bottom of the legs they slide easily and already have a pad under legs.  Boxes and screws were in perfect condition
