I recently purchased one of these barstools.  I purchased one just to make sure I liked it and that it worked with my bar before I ordered any more.  This is a really nice barstool, and I will be purchasing more until I have a complete set.  It was not hard to assemble, just time-consuming.   The parts are designated on a separate sheet of paper instead of on each package.  If this would have been done, I would have given a 5 star rating.
