I expected these to be rough and need sanding based on how inexpensive the were. I was wrong. Very smooth even on the end cuts. All predrilled holes lined up well. I love them do much.
This is a solid chair, very sturdy. Assembly is a bit of a challenge. It took me roughly 50 minutes to assemble it. The packaging is very good and units are HEAVY! The chairs are wonderful and comfortable. They'll last a long maintenance-free time!
