Perfect for our newly remodeled kitchen! I've been looking for gray counter height stools for a long time and finally found the ones I love. The stools sit about 1" above the marble counter, so they do not block my view. The padded top cushion "bumps" into the counter, so it does not scratch it. These stools feel nice and sturdy and the cushions are just right - not too soft, not too hard. I highly recommend these stools!
