These barstools were exactly what I was looking for, for the amount that I wanted to spend.  They probably wont last forever, but I think the pricing was appropriate.  I have put together a lot of furniture pieces, so I knew what I was getting into.  Took a little bit to figure out the first one, but once I had that one figured out, the rest were  pretty easy in an assembly line!  Only thing I have an issue with is that the wood on the seat seems to scratch pretty easy.... but nothing a little seat cushion cant cover up!
