The stools are fantastic looking! They are elegant and are substantial. I saw the exact same model and brand priced much higher on other sites. The problem? They are difficult to assemble. The holes do not align well. Sometime a hammer is needed to "coax" things into place. We have assembled 2 of 4 so far. Both of them, the very very last bolt that attaches the seat back to the seat - does not fit! I won't be returning as they are beautiful and we will hammer/glue/weld the seat back as necessary. But it it a bit disappointing.

I am extremely please with my purchase. I did have an issue with hardware that was missing and it was quickly resolved. The bar stools and table are a quality product and I was happy with the price.
