This is a beautiful stool. I ordered 3 counter-height ones for my kitchen. The first one took my about an hour to assemble! But after that, it was only 15 minutes each for the next 2.
The only thing I am really bummed about is the swivel. I was expecting a "Weeeee!" swing-you-all-the-way-around swivel, but you have to push hard against the floor to get these to swivel. Maybe it is because the swivel isn't on rollers, but just a pivot? I would have bought a different chair if I'd known that.

Pros: Looks beautiful; Seat is comfy
Cons: Hard to assemble; Doesn't swivel well at all
