These bar stools were a great choice for our new kitchen. They are off-white, and a warm gray, which I did expect. They were tricky to put together. I would recommend not following the instructions and start by attaching the curved and straight stretchers loosely to the legs before going forward (do not use the small screws yet). Also, oddly the front legs are not interchangeable and you need to place them by their letter sticker exactly as indicated in the illustration on the instructions. Swapped will cause the rest of the pieces to not fit tight. Learned this one the hard way and had to take apart the chair and start over.
