I bought 3 of these for a counter bar area in my kitchen. I love the distressed finish. They seem sturdy and don't wobble as long as you tighten them all the way. One was a bit wobbly at first and then I realized the screws weren't all the way in.  They were simple to put together.  There are little wood hole covers to install to hide the screw holes, these probably need some wood glue bc they've popped out a couple of times.
