After I got them assembled they are very nice, sturdy and look good. The only fault I found was the nuts that went with the bolts that hold the seat to the long support bolt that adjusts the height were worthless, 6 of the 12 wouldn't screw onto the bolts. Luckily I had some bolts and nuts the right size in my shop to replace them. Also with all the bolts supplied to assemble this are extremely soft, do not over tighten any of them or they will strip. The stools are engineered very well and everything is built well, except the bolts and nuts that come with them. For the price, I'd buy again, just be careful with assembly.
