Love these stools!! I would give 5 stars if not for the little wooden inserts that cover the screw holes ... they keep popping out so I'm going to put a little wood glue in there to hold them in place. The stools were pretty easy to assemble, with some elbow grease and patience, took me about an hour to do all four. The tool you need for assembly is included. They are very sturdy and look like high end furniture. Well worth the price! We get lots of compliments on them. Would buy again and would recommend to a friend.

Pros: Great value, easy to assemble, sturdy, beautiful, comfortable.
Cons: Wooden inserts won't stay in place over the screw holes.
