They look great in my space! They were fairly easy to assemble. With 2 of us, it went a little faster about 2 12 hours for all 4 chairs. The hardware (screws, washers, and tool) had an oily substance on them that I had to be careful not to get on the wood or upholstery. The wood is coated, so it wipes clean pretty easily, but not the seats. Great value, too.
