Bought this as a guitar stool for my son.  Easy to put together and feels sturdy enough to last.  The cushion is comfortable as well, which was my concern based on reviews of other stools in this price range.  

The reason for 4 stars rather than 5 is that the seat connects to the swivel bracket with 4 screws.  The screws are driven into a thin wood/particleboard base on the bottom of the seat.  I can see this being the most vulnerable part of the stool, but it appears to hold well and I don't expect that you will get a solid wood base in this price range.  

I still believe this is a very sturdy stool for home use, but I might consider a more industrial grade build if I was buying for a restaurant, for instance. 

Pros: Great value, looks nice, sturdy build, comfortable
Cons: Not industrial grade
