Love the stools but assembly was a nightmare.

These stools are beautiful! They are sturdy, comfortable and pleasing to the eye. However - the assembly was a nightmare. I honestly thought that putting together five pieces of wood would not be that difficult. Boy was I wrong. The first time I tried to put one together I tried for about two hours and then gave up. Long story short I had to have someone put them together for me and it took them an hour and a half to put the two stools together. They had to use their own tools and some of their own hardware. So I had to take off a star for that.

Beautiful and exactly what I wanted. Extremely challenging to put together. A lot of the bolts don’t go in properly. Very frustrating to say the least. Was sweating and it took me over an hour per chair.
