These stools are great quality, and they look great! I didn't give them 5 stars, because the assembly process was AWFUL. They need to either provide better tools, or they need to reconfigure how to ship these so that the buyer isn't spending a crazy amount of time assembling them. Looking at them now, they were worth the time, but if you were to ask us in the heat of assembly, the answer might not be the same. Also, we purchased 5 chairs, and some of them did not match up perfectly with the screws/holes. We also have one chair that is a little uneven. Again, this might go to tools and assembly, if I were to guess. Overall, they look awesome, but be ready to put in some time and effort when putting them together.
