Christopher Knight Home Caribbean Outdoor 30" Acacia Wood Barstools, 2-Pcs Set, Natural Stained

These stools are easy to assemble, super sturdy, comfortable to sit on, and beautiful to look at. I've spent four times as much on furniture that is half as good. I highly recommend!

I love these. They match our swim spa perfectly and are holding up well outside.

I am very satisfied with the appearance, and quality of the barstools. The assembly involves machine (not wood) screws screwed into factory placed metal inserts in the wood. This is quality construction. However, they have one quirk worth knowing. Two wood cross bars have to be attached with a total of 4 screws. The manufacturer chose to hide these screws by having them inserted inside pockets milled into the cross bars. This makes it impossible to start the screws with your fingers, which is recommended to prevent cross-threading. There is an Allen wrench included that has a short square cut arm, and a long ball ended arm. The ball arm allows the screws to be turned quickly, but the side load pushes the screw sideways, so they cannot be easily started. The square cut end allows the screw to be guided into the insert, but the screw can only be turned about 1/6 turn without removing and replacing the wrench. Thus, the choice to hide these screws, makes this part of the assembly a real pain. The instructions, generally well done and clear, do not offer assistance with selecting the correct orientation of the Allen wrench. For people not familiar with tools, this part of the assembly could be even more difficult. Thus, this somewhat long note. Would I buy these stools again? Yes, but I would be prepared for some frustration.

I'm a 67-year-old woman and put these together myself. I had bought two. Yes, I read the directions and of course, the 2nd one was easier than the first one. They give you one extra part for the nut, washer, screw, and even an extra Allen wrench. The directions are written well, in English. Easy Peasy. They look nice and I oiled them for outside. Awesome buy. My ONLY complaint is that the stickers which help with assembly are stuck a little too well to the inside of the legs, which shows if you leave them on. I used my fingernail to scrape the labels off, and then a little "Goo Gone". I still love the stools!

Over the years I've put together literally 100's of "ready to assemble" pieces of furniture and this was one of the best thought out designs. I don't see why this won't last forever. Super minor complaint (if that) is I wish the included allen key was a slightly different size in order to be able to spin 360 when screwing in some of the bolts. The pics online where super accurate and these match our bar from a different manufacturer. Very happy overall!

Super easy to put together and good quality. Sturdy and comfortable. Highly recommend

The four star ratings above are self explanatory. These stools are extremely well made securely support this big (6'5" 300lb) guy. When I oiled them with teak oil the wood grains really came out and looked very close to other teak furniture I have. When used outside, the oil allows water to shed and are easily wiped off. I use them indoors and outdoors and they are perfect height for my kitchen and outdoor bars.

I am so impressed with these benches for the price.Perfect for our outdoor bar! Easy assembling and sturdy.

Facile à assembler. Je me suis fait une section bar sur mon patio et ça donne un beau look.

Tres bonne qualité
