Very pleased with these so far as have only had them a few days. Appear to be very well made solid oak with good fixtures and all parts are well packaged and complete.  I also used a bit of wood glue on the dowels for extra strength. Feel very comfortable and upholstery is smart. As others have said, instructions aren't brilliant but if you've done a bit of self assembly before they're fairly straight forward. I made up all four chairs in a couple of hours and once you have completed one you then get faster. Good purchase
