The beauty of these is that they arrived assembled - just unbox 'em!
There was no damage in transit.  Some reviews spoke of "roughness" on the seats and/or backs of these ... the seats on my pair were slightly rough enough that clothing could get snagged or legs scratched - but I finely sanded them, and minwaxed 3 coats.  Worked like a charm, plus protects from spills.  I'd give them 5 stars if it were not for the sanding and waxing ... Really like the reclaimed wood, and have received many compliments on the beauty of the wood!
