We needed 2 barstools and didn't want to pay too much and these stools fit the bill.  Once put together, they are fairly sturdy but will definitely not withstand anyone over 200 lbs or aggressive use of the foot rails.  My husband and I have put together a lot of furniture over the years and this is the first time we had to supply our own screws, as the ones provided were much too short.  We also had to put padding on the feet in various places as the legs are uneven.   Also, there aren't any pre drilled holes for the foot rails or the seat.  The stools look nice and work well for our kids, which is ultimately what we were looking for. 

Pros: Look nice, good price
Cons: Not very sturdy, low quality
