I bought two chairs for the bar in my kitchen. They were relatively easy to assemble. The seat isn't very cushioned so I added a block of foam and recovered it with fabric to match my kitchen. Very easy to do. The only problem was the smell of formaldehyde when we opened the boxes--that happens with most furniture made in China. It dissipated in a few minutes, but we had to open all the windows and turn the fans on. I mention it for anyone who's sensitive to chemical smells. The chairs don't get a ton of use, they're more for decoration, but they're sturdy. For the price it was a good buy.
