Great stools for the price! I bought a set of 4 and then 2 individual stools to make a set of 6.-Easy assembly (approximately 30 minutes to put 6 together) only assembly required is attaching the backs with 5 bolts.-I bought the antique black color in hopes they would blend with my oil rubbed bronze hardware in my kitchen, looks similar to a bronze color at a glance. Because of the distressed style finish it would look good with black or bronze hardware.-The screws that attach the back to the stool are silver, doesn’t bother me too much but it would be easy enough to paint the heads with black finger nail polish if I decided too.-They are as comfortable as you would expect (it’s a metal bar stool, not a cushioned dinning room chair. Definilty made to be sat in for 30 minutes-1 hour at a time.-They seem well made and sturdy, I don’t expect them to break under normal conditions.-They are narrow, if you are a larger person I would consider the same stools without the backs to avoid the back supports from squeezing you. (I am a 200 pound male with a 32” waist and I fit them well)Overall, I find them to be a great stool for the price! If comfort is a big factor for you, I would consider a larger/padded stool.
