Hillsdale Montello 32-Inch Swivel Bar Stool, Old Steel Finish with Faux Brown Leather

First, not much to the assembly. Very easy. If your looking for heavy duty, then these are your chairs. I m dropping down a star due to the heaviness. They look great though. We needed counter height, and for us, these chairs seem to be about an inch too high for total comfort, but i guess thats a matter of preference. All in all, i dont think you would be disappointed in the stools,

Initially bought the 32 stools but returned for the 28 and it looks much better. My breakfast bar is only 40 high for the photo comparisons. As a helpful tip for those who open the package questioning the plastic on and under the seat- it only takes about 1 minute to remove. All you need to do is loosen the 4 screws that require the *phillips* screwdriver. You dont have to remove them, just loosen them enough to the point you can wiggle the plastic wrap off. Dont even bother trying to loosen the hex attached screws that are already attached to the base as it wont get you anywhere ;) Then its just a matter of putting on the 4 screws using the hex tool to attach the top to the bottom. Hope you enjoy as much as we have!!

Great stools for the price!!! 5 minutes to assemble per chair. Super easy! Sturdy and solid!!!

I am very pleased with the stools. I ordered three and they look great in my newly renovated kitchen. They were easy to put together. My only concern was the packaging. The cardboard used was very light and there were holes by the time they reached me.

The chair arrived quickly, just 2 days after ordering. The setup was very easy, only taking me 10 minutes. All you have to do is insert four screws using the provided allen wrench. The only bad thing was the styrofoam in the box broke up very easily into hundreds of pieces which stuck to the chair, the seat and on my clothes. Overall I am very pleased with this chair and its styling and sturdiness.

This is the perfect stool. We have been looking for three years for a stool that is beautiful, swivels, padded, extra high and durable ... found it!!

Pretty good quality, but not very comfortable

I was excited to receive my order as I had a hard time finding a 32 chair height. I ordered 4 chairs and 3 of the 4 came defective. On all 3 the screws holes holding the seats on were stripped. The company distributing the Chinese made chairs emailed return labels the next day. However, they could not accommodate my request to only replace the defective part. I had to box up and send back the chairs in their entirety and reorder the replacements. Also, the price had gone up when I went to re-order.

The bar stool is attractive and looks great at the breakfast bar. It’s very sturdy. This is the first barstool that is true to hight. It’s been very hard to find a 32” stool in a traditional look. The reason I gave this 3 stars is because it was an open item from the Amazon warehouse and it didn’t come with the screws. It had minor dents and scratches. Not returning it because like I said they hard to find in this height.

This seat is very hard and uncomfortable to sit on. However the chair is beautiful, great solid construction, high class for sure. They look really classy in my kitchen. They are taller then my other ones so make sure you measure how high you want the seat relative to your counter. I just hope the cushions over time soften up.
