Decent quality, quite sturdy, but was a little difficult to assemble single handedly. I didn’t have a wrench of the correct size to hold the “bolts” while trying to finger tighten the hex nut caps. I cut my thumb on two of the caps that had filament-sizes pieces of metal sticking out. The directions are minimal and pictures are difficult to see clearly, with no detail or labeling. I bought for a friend to use for patio gardening. She liked the under storage area for holding her gardening tools. I told her to cover the stool to protect from rain.
