I will say that these stools are very attractive, comfortable and sturdy!  I really do love them!  The seats are pretty deep, and that makes them very comfortable to sit on.  The wood stain varies a little from stool to stool, but not in a bad way.  The color of the wood itself is very attractive and would go with so many different design styles.  We did have on slight issue with the seat of one of the three stools we purchased.  The wood was a bit too distressed and the top layer of the wood was almost frail, so I didn't think it would sustain the wear and tear of my kids.  I reached out to customer service, and I cannot tell you how great they were.  I was able to get a replacement stool without any issue.   I would highly recommend these stools, but just be aware that they are made of reclaimed wood and you could possibly run into the same issue I had.
