So far all the pieces look good, but I cannot assemble the table or stools since it didn't come with any screws. Also, you can definitely tell the metal is more of a dark rusty brown color in person and the stool seat cushions are brown as well, even though it looks black in the pictures online. There is a sort of spotted design on the metal rather than a smooth finish, which I did not expect. As far as size and price, this table is exactly what I was looking for in my small house. I have no dining room and no extra kitchen room for a table. Initially I thought I would just go without, but then I found this piece and thought it might be a better solution to fit up against the wall between my living room and kitchen (where there would be a breakfast bar if you took down the wall).
