Will not last a year!  
I have had these stools for a year, and they have not held up with daily use. The bolts that hold the seat to the back continuously need to be re-tightened, the wood screws that hold the legs together constantly fall out and the cushion on the chair my husband primarily sits in has a weird compression pattern-he weighs 190 lbs well below the 250 lbs weightlimit. I just think things should last longer than a year.

I had an issue when I first received the stools and customer service was great!
