So I absolutely love my new bar stools!!  So simple to put together.  I do have a question though.  After putting together, I used the lever to see how high they would actually go.  Got them to their highest level and now can not get them to go down again.  If anyone has any suggestions, please let me know.  I know they are not defective, because it is the same with all 4 stools.  So I am just not figuring out how to lower the seats.  Thank you.  And again, for this price range, these stools are made very well.
