I ordered five of these stools in bright orange.  It was a huge risk to order furniture in such a bright color but it worked!  They look great in our modern style open kitchen/family room area.  When guests come over they LOVE them.  Also, they are so comfortable.  We always have someone sitting in them because they are so "squishy" and comfortable.  Very glad I went with stools with backs on them.  The funny thing is, they are so comfy that my family chooses to sit at the bar to eat now, rather than the kitchen table.
