Would be great stools if manufacturer was consistent. I ordered three of these stools. One was great, in pristine condition. One was acceptable, small areas of cloudiness in the stool. And, one was very very cloudy. I requested a replacement for the cloudy chair and received a chair that was scratched so badly, the cloudy chair was the better option. It’s unfortunate because the stools are lovely and comfortable. They have some give and are not stiff.
