We received these very quickly after order.  Package arrived intact from courier.  Assembly was pretty quick and straight foward (mostly diagram based).  I had the bar stools put together in just a couple of minutes.  My wife and are very pleased with the look and functions (swivel and hydraulic lift) of the chairs.  They look really sharp with our newly renovated kitchen and breakfast bar.  We've already gotten several compliments from family and guests alike!  Buy with confidence.
