I think I paid way too much. Theses chairs are garbage. I have assembled three out of for stools and two of them are already failing. 
For starters, the stools in question failed during assembly. The metal barrels that the bolts went into pulled out as they were being screwed together. I attempted to glue the barrels back into place, but it didn’t work. Now I’m looking at throwing the two away and hoping that the fourth one will assemble without issue. I would not recommend this product
