The jury is still out on this one. The stool is very nice looking and sturdy but I am not sure if I will be keeping the sets I ordered. When we opened each box to start assembling them, we couldn't help but notice a VERY strong gasoline odor. The odor seems to be coming from the legs so we are currently having them air dry in our porch as recommended by customer service when I phoned about the concern. I really hope the odor goes away, if not, I will definitely have to return.
