The chairs arrived on time and were well wrapped.  They were not at all difficult to assemble, but it was a 2-person job to hold the back spindles upright and to work the curved piece on top of them.  Not included were any kind of cap for the bottom of the legs. Perhaps this is due to the fact that both metal or felted caps are available at the big box store, so the choice is yours to make. For the price you might expect the chairs to be lightweight but this is not so. They have heft to them so they will stay put.  The seat is a comfortable size for 'real people.'
