Put together within minutes.  Seem very sturdy so far.  They look just as described.  I purchased the brown and I love them with my hardwood floors.  I kept debating on these and they kept going out of stock!  The last time I saw them I purchased immediately and do not regret it at all.  I hope they are still in stock so I can purchase 2 more.  These fit perfectly under my kitchen island and are very comfortable to sit on. Great value!
