I decided to purchase online due to a lack of time and saw that these stools were the correct price range and design I needed. 

Ive had them approximately three months - the back has broken off of one (a 12 weld holds the back onto the base), and one of the screws that holds the legs onto the base snapped in the housing, causing the leg to shift, and eventually bend to where it is now no longer usable.

In both instances, a normal size person was sitting in the chair, and both breakages nearly caused injury. If I hadnt already thrown them in the trash Id think about sending them back in little bitty pieces.
