Overview I needed a barstool set for our daughter’s first apartment. A solid wood set was key because barstools tend to take a lot of abuse, including shoes moving around on the footrests, and I didn’t want a set that would start looking worn in a few short weeks. I selected the X-back barstools from Ophelia Co as they are solid wood, have the wood tone I was looking for (a nice balanced brown without yellow or red undertones), and I liked the fabriclinen-look padded seat. Assembly The first barstool went together easily. The instructions were clear and I had all the parts I needed. The second barstool assembly was also rolling along until it got to attaching the second front leg. As you can see in my photos, the first leg had six holes drilled so the center bolts could attach the leg to the seat box. However, the second leg did not have the holes for the bolts. I took one star off for that because, while I had the tools to do the job, it was a bit frustrating drilling the holes to ensure they matched up perfectly with the threaded leg holes. I finally got everything lined up and assembled and the finished chairs are perfect. Assembly TipsComments 1. Aside from the missing holes, which I imagine isn’t common, the assembly was easy and did not require the help of a second person. 2. If you have a drill and a set of hex screwdriver bits, use them instead of the included the allen wrench. You will want your drill anyways (and a Phillips Head bit) when you attach the seat to the seat box). Final Impression Nice, solid barstools that offer an attractive, comfortable, and stable place to sit. If the one chair hadn’t have been missing the two bolt holes, I would have rated them five stars.

Beautiful bar stools made extremely well. Took about 25 minutes per stool to assemble. Really nice hardwood finish in medium walnut. Very sturdy. Nice beige fabric seat that are very comfortable. Good value for the price asked.

The barstools arrived well-packaged and the assembly process was refreshingly straightforward—each stool took about 15 minutes to put together, with clear instructions and all necessary parts included. Once assembled, the stools exceeded my expectations in terms of comfort. The seat cushion is supportive and makes sitting for extended periods enjoyable, whether you’re having a quick breakfast or entertaining friends. The stools are also lightweight enough to move easily but feel sturdy and well-built, giving peace of mind that they’ll last with daily use

The chairs match bar cabinet and kitchen table perfectly I did get them for my kitchen counter. Easy to assemble and pretty sturdy thus far. I want to point out that the chair cushions did not have holes for the screws, my husband had to drill them

These chairs are nice looking, and comfortable. The material makes them easy to clean up so they're a good option for kids. They are easy to put together. The colors are nice and easily work well with other items in the room. The size and height work great for regular counter height. Overall would definitely recommend to other people.
