Im so uneasy buying furniture online, especially from and especially when it is cheap. These are actually one of the better furniture purchases weve made and weve been almost exclusively using these stools on our island this past week rather than our much more expensive dining table set.
Assembly is really straight forward, although I will caution to keep everything loose until you can fit the foot rest square so as not to scratch up the legs when trying to place it. Everything is an M5 hex and an allen key is provided which just took forever to deal with. Consider buying a bit for your drill if you dont have metric sizes.
The chairs are ultra light weight but extremely sturdy. Im not as light as I used to be and I feel very comfortable and confident in their sturdiness as I sit and move around on them. Although the back and seat look thin, the padding is very comfortable and we dont mind sitting on them for a long dinner or when Im working on my laptop.
In case its not really obvious, these are the perfect height for sitting at standard counter height, not bar high/top height.
Cautious buyer Do recommend.
