I would give this a 3.5 if that was an option. They look nice and they seem sturdy so far. The instructions are the worst instructions I have EVER come across. Thank goodness I have put together many a piece of furniture in my life (I use to work for a furniture store) otherwise it may have been next to impossible to put together. The underneath of them is fairly cheap but... nobody should be looking at that. One of the legs had some sticky residue on it. 

Pros: Look nice, seem sturdy 
Cons: Horrible instructions, cheaply made
