These are so easy to assemble and absolutely gorgeous, I am soo happy with them.  I will not ding Wayfair for choosing a poor carrier to deliver though.  I had problems with UPS ground in my local area.  They are not reliable currier and I hope Wayfair decides to use another currier in my area.  The box was severely damaged and I was afraid that my seat would be.  But thank you for wrapping them inside the box well enough they were not damaged.  I give this a 5 star and would recommend to someone looking for bar height stools to purchase this (and yes these are for me not a gift).
