Very happy with the chairs. Read alot of reviews and was on fence about sturdiness. I find them to be nice and sturdy (I am 235 ). The KEY to these chairs for both sturdiness and ease of assemblage is FOLLOW the directions and HAVE THE PROPER TOOLS. If you rely on using the included Allen wrench you will likely NOT have a good result and it will take you ALL day to assemble. Get a 6mm Allen drive socket with swivel adapter and use your drill. This will allow you to tighten in sequence and finish quickly. I built 8 of them in 1.5 hours. We are very pleased.
