This really is a nice bar stool.  However, there was quite a bit of 'scuffing' on all of the legs. It appears that that is intended to give these bar stools a more rustic appearance, but in doing so some of the wood was chipped as well.  Very poorly done, but instead of dealing with a return, and since it's minor enough, I will touch it up myself.  Overall, this is a very nice and sturdy bar stool.   Pardon the blurry photo, but you get the idea.
