Stools arrived earlier than expected. Assembly was an undertaking with the little allen wrench supplied, but no challenge except for the time required. Instruction sheet was somewhat vague but again no big problem. Quality of stool overall is better than expected. The only problem is with one seat which has a rip in the finished material, but according to wayfair service dept. a replacement is on the way, should be here in a few days. If this problem is addressed as promised these  stools so far are a great value.
