These weren't quiet as rustic as I anticipated from the photo, but I do still like them.  They are also narrower than I expected which I found when I sat down (and I am very petite), but they do seem very sturdy, as mentioned by others. Having them come in already assembled isn't crucial but certainly very convenient. Overall, I like that these are unique in comparison to everything else I have seen and am very pleased with this purchase.  I bought three, but with how narrow they are, I will likely purchase another to fit my space.  .  

Pros: unique
