The size of these are just as advertised.  They are however hollow and very fragile. They would be much better if they were solid.

Not very solid, sturdy. To return them is more then they cost and the maker was not willing to help. I learned from this experience

Their universal face has broke after little use of the blade. I think they do better with a solid center. Not the way it is.

They are too big, especially in the diameter. They seemed kinda old and too solid. I would have liked them to have more elasticity.

They work as intended. My only minor complaint is I wish they were thicker in the material. They are a bit thin and are a little too flexible. They would be far superior if they made them a tad sturdier.

I really thought these would be great. They are better than some as far as breaking. BUT they break too much.

To make them stand firm you have to insert a cardboard bottom. The quality is not completely there, but they do the job their intended to do so it's not that bad.

I was under the impression, like most dowels, that these were solid.  These are more like a straw.  Not very strong to support a heavy cake unless we use a lot of them.

They're nice enough but they don't have a wooden stick at the bottom which would be easier to use. They aren't an snnice as the cedar ones from Esteban either

For the price it would have been nice if they were metal.

They'll serve their purpose, but they are rather flimsy. The shape was distorted a little coming out of the box. This only causes a problem if you're using it as file storage; when the sides are bowed inward the hanging files don't connect/slide properly.

They are solid, but the sides are not well constructed.  Taping the top flap is totally fine, but I shouldn't have to tape the sides to keep them from coming apart.  Its a flaw that effects half the boxes.

Very solid!  I'd give 5 stars but why put round holes in something that's designed to be recessed?  If the holes were square . you could use carriage  bolts instead of hex heads that stick up. Other than that they're great.

Well built but tough to get together straight and solid.

They look nice, solid weight, but they have to be countersunk, which was more of a project than we wanted.

Designed by an angel, put together by an ape. They look great, but under closer inspection, you can see how it's very amateurishly soldered together (terrible terrible job). It's a shame because that little detail makes them look cheap as hell when they could look fantastic with just a tiny bit more precision.

They look great and function well...but are not solid wood.  In two days of my kids swiveling them into the granite counter the veneer chips off and looks terrible.  My wife and I feel rather dumb for this purchase of three of them, and need to find new stools all over again!
