I think they are perfect for this style and size of stool. It goes well in a smaller setting as the seat is not a large seat like most stools. It was really easy to put together you just need to lay out all the hardware and follow instructions. A couple areas are a tight fit because of the way the stool needed to be constructed so take your time it will work for you also. Just make sure not to cross thread the bolts make sure you finger tight first.
