Overall, very nice stools with refined look.  Sturdier and better finished than expected, they feel solid and of good quality.  The faux leather is a good choice around the kitchen and food, and the "leather" is indistinguishable from real leather to the eye.  The stool assembles with four screws in each seat bottom, but one of the holes on one of my four stools was misaligned, so I had to use some tools to enlarge the opening so the screw would insert.  Based on the high rating, I'm sure this is rare, but should have been caught by QC, hence my 4 star and not 5 star rating.  The walnut finish helps this stool fit well in modern to mid-century-modern decor.
