Gorgeous chairs. Look exactly as in the pictures. Putting them together was fine, no issues. It took about 30 minutes for the first one and was much faster for the other. These chairs are roomier than other barstools I've sat in. The reason for taking off a star is the back hits at a slightly uncomfortable spot on my back. When I sit leaned back for too long, my back starts to hurt. I still love the chairs and do not regret my purchase.
