Ordered this stool hoping for a nice, solid wood stool. The stool didn't even make it through assembly before falling completely apart. The threaded screw inserts strip extremely easily, making the tightening of the supports to the frame impossible. The holes drilled in the supports for the screws to go through are so big that there is a razor thin amount of wood left for strength on either side of the support. This chair is a total piece of garbage. Well . . . it may look nice on the fire.
