Great value. Stools look great and cant really beat the price. However, like many of the other reviews mention, you need longer screws. i got a pack at home depot pretty easily and for under $3 and chairs got much tighter/more secure. Also, directions do not mention the locking washer but should be sure to use those as it makes the bolts tighter/prevents them from loosening. Definitely a great purchase and would do so again.
