My husband had a rough time putting these stools together. We ordered two sets. Poor QC, broken and cracked leg floor protector, and we had to pull out file to fix all the holes that were poorly drilled where the foot rest pieces connect. The second box all the screws were strewn all over the box because the nuts and bolts pouches were torn open. We are missing nuts so had to go to Out to find replacement. We paid over $400 for the stools and certainly didn't expect this type of frustration. Yes the stools are pretty but we have learned our lesson regarding buying furniture we have to assemble on our own
