This chair is as advertised. It has a great paint color, nicely blending some brown tints to the black paint for an authentic look. it's a comfortable stool, that is structurally very strong. Assembly was very easy, I did use a drill to put in the screws and then I hand tightened. Is about 1" too low, but that is part of the measurement and isn't a fault more a wish..I wish it was a little taller , 1"-2". I had to add felt feet, I wish it came with something for the bottom. 

Pros: great value, easy to assemble, sturdy and good looking 
Cons: wish it had some feet
