Love these barstools. They were packed very well and arrived quickly. The wood tones are quite nice and the seat is very comfortable. These are great if you prefer a low back. They have a metal bar for your feet which is decorative or functional. The instructions could be better. There is a square plate that attaches the top to the bottom. You need to twist it till it becomes a triangle. The instructions have no words, only photos so it is somewhat confusing. Once we figured that out the process went smoothly.
