This folding bar stool is great for entertaining not to mention a great space saver as it can be folded up and put in our basement.  The back and seat cushion make it very comfortable to sit on, unlike many bar stools that have hard surfaces and and can be uncomfortable sitting on for long periods of time.  It is a little bit on the heavy side, but we think that's because it's made more solid and sturdier than most bar stools we looked at.  Overall we are very happy with them (we bought two).
