High quality wood....LOW quality construction...the left hand/right hand thread system that ties the legs together has been a NIGHTMARE.  The cross stays pop out when people are sitting on them and the threads are so fine that they don't grip.

We bought 4 of these and they all have the same issue.  I have resorted to removing the threads and used screws in an attempt to keep these from coming apart.  Very disappointed in the construction.

But they look nice if you don't sit on them...ugh.
