I read a lot of the other reviews that talked about how challenging they are to assemble. I didn’t put much stock in it because they really don’t look that hard. Boy was I wrong! They were SO HARD to assemble! Things were misaligned and took some real muscles to sort of line up. There were also some defects some holes had some rust on them and one of the caps was broken. Once we got back that I will say the chairs look good and are comfortable, but I was disappointed with what came out of the boxes.
