I was nicely surprised at the quality of "leather" on the seat pan.  Very soft/supple.  The overall construction of the bar stools is nice - but you know they were made in China when you are assembling them because they are not 100% consistent in manufacture.  For example, one bar stool came with a metal "footrest" on one of the crossbars and one did not.  One of the legs had a dent/divot and the paint was gone in that spot (looks like damage from before it was packaged).  We could not get either stool (we bought 2 total) to sit completely level, so they both have a slight wobble.  Not too noticeable, overall, so - for the price - we are happy.  (Yes, we followed the directions included that guide you on getting the wobble to disappear, but that did not eliminate the issue.  Still, we are happy with the overall product.)

Pros: Great price, great value, awesome seat pans, comfortable stool
Cons: a little wobbly; not made in the USA
