Review on Armen Living Mid Century Leather Barstool by Stacy Edwards

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Wanted to love them but.meh

Wanted to love these. Serious. I've been looking for this type of bar stool but all the ones I really liked cost at least $300/PC until I found these bad boys. Was so excited about their delivery. Unpacked and everything went smoothly. Assembly is very easy, no additional tools are required. Here it went downhill. Quickly. I turned the chair over and it wobbled EXTREMELY. Not sure if any of the legs are the wrong length or what's going on, but I've tried attaching the legs a different way and it didn't work. I placed a magazine under one of the legs to keep it stable and then sat down. And it got even worse. I am an average height man. 140 pounds. And I was really scared to put all my weight on that chair. He seemed so fragile and couldn't bear my weight. I'm so sad because aesthetically it's exactly what I was looking for. I think that's what I get when I buy stools for $90, not $300. Unfortunately they are coming back. Note: The skin on it is BROWN. The description says it right, but I obviously didn't read it. Just looking at the photos in the reviews made me think the leather was black, which is what I wanted. Definitely my fault but I wanted someone else to think about it. Don't be ignorant like me :)
