These bar stools arrived in good packaging and were easy to assemble. They are pretty good quality although a little light in weight so it wouldn't take much to knock them over. They are also reasonably comfortable to sit in although I wouldn't want to sit in one for over an hour or two. I originally got two of the four  in red to see what they would look like and decided to get the other two in black since the red color is VERY vivid. Overall a great buy for the money!
