Excellent quality for the price!  The wood is solid, the cushion on the stool is firm which we like as it shows a sign of good foam and not something that will flatten quickly.  The stool was an inch too high so my husband chopped the bottom of the legs down an inch and it was perfection at last!  Instructions were easy to read and putting them together was a snap. Best part, the manufacturer includes all tools necessary to put them together!  What a pleasant bonus!  Buy it and you won't be disappointed what so ever!
