This barstools are super cute however I was a little upset that there were defective pieces on both of them with the legs. Instead of wasting time to return them, my husband was able to fix the issue to make it work. There was no hole for the screw on the connecting dowel (we drilled one) on one of the barstools and the other one looked like the dowel connecting pieces weren't pushed all the way in and secured after it was glued. We were able to use a rubber mallet to whack it back in but still something that shouldn’t have had to be done for brand new barstools. Other than that, we are happy with our purchase!
