I ordered 4 of these stools in lime green.  The green is very bright...looks just the same as pics.  Each stool took about 10 minutes to put together...very simple.  I like that they have a ring around the underside that prevents floor scratching.  They seem pretty sturdy.  We have to raise ours quite high for the younger kids and it does lose some of it's stability, but has never felt like it would tip.  We love them!
