These barstools are just ok. They have some quality issues that make them look cheap. They were easy enough to put together although there was a missing screw, but I had one on hand that I could use so no real harm. There were gouges around the holes that show on the outside of the legs. (These are the holes that you put the wooden peg in to finish). The gouged areas were stained, so they had been made during the construction process and shipped out anyway. I bought two stools - both had this issue. I'm not going to return them because the shipping would cost too much, but these defects detract from the look of the stools. I would not recommend these stool unless you don't care how they look. I would not buy these again.
