I use these Garen stools from Wayfaur all over my home inside and out. I love how sturdy they are and how functional. They can be stools, hold trays or books, fill in a corner hold plants out doors, brighten up the garden walkway, seating sd a side table. So many uses you can't go wrong! I have several out side and just purchased another for my daughter who just graduated college it will be so nice next to her sofa since space is important right now. The stools are genuios and Wayfaur has quality and the best deals I have seen online. Don't pass them up I promise they will add a Plath of color and function to any space!
