These are indeed stylish, but not as well made as I hoped. The wood on the legs is much softer than I expected and I do not think they will age well. Also, assembling them was a struggle. With only a few pieces and 8 screws you'd think it would be easy, but we had the hardest time getting the legs to be balanced, even with following the instructions to only screw each screw in partially before going back to fully tighten. We ended up figuring it out eventually, I'd say the biggest thing was to really get everything screwed in all the way (more than it feels you can), before testing them out.
