These stools are gorgeous!  Very heavy and sturdy, which is great for kids.  My 3 yr old can climb up on them and I don't need to worry that they will fall over on him.  The seats are nice and cushy and big!  Very comfortable for hanging out in the kitchen for long periods.  Amazing quality for the price! The seat color and back color are more of a true brown than they appear in the picture.  Very easy to put together.  Put together 4 chairs in less than 1/2 and hour.
