These stools are soooooo comfy. I hate uncomfy high top chairs  stools and these are a dream come true. The seat is so plush and soft. I think the seat is just a little bit higher than counter height due to the thickness, which I like. The style is a nice, somewhat unique departure from other stools available in this price range. I don’t always love the look of faux leather with a textured look, but I have the sand color and they are beautiful.
