We absolutely love these stools.  They are exactly as depicted in their description photo and they appear to be sturdy construction.  Very solid.  The color of the wood seat is beautiful with very nice grain.  Like other comments we also found that the wood seat did have some imperfections, a rough piece of wood lifting on the top of one stool and a rough edge on another.  We used some wood glue to secure the lifting piece and filled in the rough edge with another treatment of wood glue.  The result was very satisfactory and we liked the stools so much we really didn't want to return them.  Just a little more detail to the finishing of the wood seats would make these perfect and I would have given them 5 stars. The fact that they came fully assembled was a very nice surprise.  Pros: Really nice looking stools, wider than most seats and fully assembled.  Cons:  Seats need more quality control in the finish.
