Love these stools.  They are so comfortable and look exactly like they do in the picture. I ordered them in beige and they are true to the color in the images. I would describe it as the color of natural linen. Assembly was not difficult but as is typical with assembly instructions you need to pay attention to part placement because they skip some details.  I had to redo my first stool and then I got the hang of it.  These are definitely a good quality, comfortable stool for the price and look awesome!
