I love the look of these stools and they are very comfortable. They were relatively easy to put together. The legs are uneven once you get everything screwed down tight and you have to adjust the screws on the bottom of the legs pretty severely to make them even and not wobble as much. Also, if you push them up to the counter so that they are touching, you get little chip marks on the backs of the stools. I will be touching up the backs with stain quiet often.
