I bought these chairs unfinished so I could stain them the same as the dining table I made. Assembly was super easy. Chairs look and feel solid. I ordered two sets and all of them have a little rocking motion after assembly. I tried to loosen all screws and adjust but never could get them level. After staining it appeared that there were areas that were filled with putty and wouldn't accept the stain. Not that big of a deal just annoying to a perfectionist. Overall a good value and would recommend.
