These bar stool are very attractive and very reasonably priced. They come unassembled, and I put them together myself (not my husband). All that was needed was the included Allen Wrench (although I used a ratchet from my husbands tool box which made it quicker).

The screws to assemble these bar stool are large and sturdy, not cheap and flimsy. The parts fit together well. Once assembled they are quite sturdy.

The finish is okay. Don't expect the wood to be oak. It's called an "oak finish", and it is rather orange. Also, you can see the places where the wood has been joined on the top of the seat. For this price item I think that is acceptable.

I was surprised that the top of the bar stools has "grooves" to make them look more rustic. Those grooves do not show up in the pictures of the oak finished bar stool. Look at the ones with the dark walnut finish to see what I'm referring to.

Overall, I am very pleased with these bar stools.
