Stools are fine and look like the pic. I purchased four for a new kitchen island. Assembly was mostly straightforward. The counter height fit is perfect. One stool slightly rocks on the floor but I am hoping it will level out with use. My biggest concern is value for money. Given the manufacturer saves a whole lot of money on assembly and by shipping unassembled stools,  I think these are overpriced. I expected a more “polished” finish, higher quality fabric and superior cushioning at this price point.
