Really nice table, it doesn't come with stools/chairs. I knew that from the desciption but some people that reviewed it didn't know it doesn't come with stools/chairs.  Tighten the legs on has far as you can with the tools provided that you are not hurting yourself or this means you have tighten it too much and are in danger of cracking the wood. One last thing, I read a review that the hardware shows from underneath, I wasn't bothered by it but if you are, just spray paint it with a dark color like brown or black.
