I like the look of these stools, they were fairly easy to put together but at a few points another hand is needed to hold items in place.  I would have given the stools a much higher rating except they are incredibly uncomfortable.  The back is not supportive at all.  When you lean back you go too far and end up slipping off the stool.  Same happens to my very thin 27 year old daughter and my not so very thin visitors.  If they weren't all put together and the boxes broken down I would have sent them back and ordered my second choice. Disappointed.
