PHI VILLA Outdoor Swivel Bar Stools Set of 2, Bar Height Patio Chairs 30" Seat Height with All-Weather Brown Textilene Fabric, Tall Patio Chairs Furniture for Outside, Deck, Yard and Garden

Got the table and chairs and they were great! Everything went together easily, except I had an issue with one chair arm (likely my fault I’m sure).Contacted them and a couple days later they sent a replacement arm and the appropriate bolts.I was always planning on ordering a second set from the beginning, but decided to wait and see if there would be an issue getting it fixed. Given the great customer service experience, I’m ordering the second set today!

I’ve had these outdoor swivel bar stools for a while now, and honestly, they were a worthwhile investment for my backyard setup. I love how easily they swivel; no more awkward neck turns when chatting with someone beside me.

My purchase was for a total of four chairs. They arrived in two boxes with a single box containing two chairs for assembly.The boxes were very well packed and all pieces nicely protected for shipment. All pieces were undamaged after unpacking. There was much assembly required and here are my lessons learned to make that process easier.1) Instructions are pictorial only no text. Made sense for the most part.2) Hardware and assembly tools came in a super tight blister pack. See pic. Do yourself a favor and approach it from the back. Much easier than trying to slice from the front. I labeled Dixie cups and kept parts organized that way. They are similar in size so easy to confuse if unorganized. There is one extra part than is needed for each part.3) Fully assemble one chair first and "learn your lessons". The second through fourth chair went much quicker.4) I took the advice of another reviewer and used my own tools instead of the supplied ones and it makes assembly so much easier. See pic. A T Handle 4mm hex key and a 10mm ratchet/socket limited alot of cussing.5) I assembled on a large dining room table to limit having to bend over and keeping things at a level reach and best visibility.6) When assembling the legs make sure you center & evenly space them or you may have issues attaching the seat/swivel plate and the bolts lining up to the holes on the cross pieces. Suggestion don't tighten any of the bolts in this step until you have all the bolts inserted and the nuts started. On my fourth chair I had to disassemble and start over. Make sure the screw in leg adjusters don't back out and fall. A ood hand tightening will do the trick.7) When assembling the chair back (last step) leave the rear arm bolts a little loose or you will have issues fitting the back in place. Once all bolts are in place and started you can tighten them all.8) Some steps are easiest with two people especially the chair back so someone can hold it in place while the other gets the bolts started.9) While there were some videos on YouTube I didn't find one that was exactly specific to these chairs.Bottom line is the assembly isn't overwhelming with some preparation and the right tools. With four chairs practice makes perfect. These are replacing similar chairs that are now 11 years old and the material has begun to split. Good deal for the price.

The 30" height is just perfect for my patio bar. I love how smoothly they swivel; the bearings seem to be well-made and sturdy.The padded seat is a nice touch, providing comfort even during long hours of sitting. Overall, these stools are a great investment for anyone looking to elevate their outdoor space.

The bearings are smooth, allowing for easy swiveling without any effort. I also like the durability; they are built to last and can handle any weather conditions with ease. They don’t look cheap at all and give off a nice modern vibe that matches my home’s style.

I am a really good mechanic and engineer. I assemble a lot of stuff including cars, motorcycles etc. It took me 4 hours to assemble these two chairs, 3 hours too long. In the process I learned a lot about the problems with these chairs. You need to be prepared to use all of your mechanical skills and if you don't have any, buy something else. The assembly issues have been described by others as difficult with no good instructions. I agree with that, but it is really more awkward than difficult. 2 people working together could help some but the process is just awkward trying to hold the odd shaped parts and getting them attached. But that is really a minor issue. Read on. There is a manufacturing and quality control issue that, if corrected, would make the process some easier, but still awkward. When attaching the seat and back to the arms, there are 8 connections to make and if they don't line up properly, then it can be a huge challenge to connect the seat and back to the arms. In the manufacturing process, the arms have had nuts welded into them that need to line up with the bolt holes in the seat and back. On my chairs, these holes did not line up so the process was very complicated to attach the bolts and get them tightened without stripping them. So what likely caused the problem? In welding these nuts, the jig used must have gotten out of true (or the welder was high) so the nuts are not where they should be. Now the difference could be as small as 1/8" but that is plenty enough to make assembly nearly impossible. So the jig is out of true and the QA team had missed it, leaving you you and I to figure a way around it. Bad engineering, bad manufacturing and bad quality control. Having said that, I was able to get mine built and I like them, but I exhausted my repertoire of foul language by the end. These are my experiences. You can make the call yourself. Good luck!
