I love this stool!  Previously I have purchased adjustable stools and was a little leery about having a fixed height but I measured six ways to  Sunday before deciding that this one should work.  I was delighted to find that it does!  I like having four legs instead of just the pedestal much more stable.  They are a substantial weight but they slide easily on my wood floors. I’m picky about the seat size as well, and these are just right.  They aren’t real leather (so easier to clean), but they are not slippery and the color goes well with the other items in the room
