Have had these barstools for four months, and they have stood up to hard use by kids without any problems.  They have been dropped onto tile without chipping or cracking, have had miles ridden around and around...and they look like the day we bought them.  Would buy again in a heartbeat.

Pros: GREAT value, no assembly whatsoever, very durable finish and solid construction
Cons: For a fair review, because of the spinning section on top, they are a bit topheavy, which might be hazardous if little kids are using them due to tipping.
