I received these bar stools just in time for Thanksgiving in my new apartment. After carefully putting the first chair together, it was very easy to build the remaining chairs. And they are beautiful! My cats like to sit in them and request dinner like humans. Like other reviews mention, the “swivel“ does need to be broken in. I took away one star because a few washers were missing and it takes time to level the chairs. There was also a small scratch on one of the seat backs. Overall, I am quite happy.
