These stools are fantastic, love the gunmetal look. The one thing is they did not come with assembly instructions (not really needed since it is 6 self explanatory bolts) but I did find you have to put 1 bolt in each of the 3 sections and not do each section at a time else the arms bend making it impossible to get the last section in. So do 1 bolt on each of the 3 sides then go back and do the second bolt on each side.
