I do not usually take the time after buying a product to go back to a website to review it. But I am so VERY PLEASED with these stools that I want to let others who may be trying to decide on a stool know how great these are. I had been looking for over a year for the perfect stool to use at my kitchen island. I already had wood floors, cabinets and breakfast set so I was hesitant to add more wood in the room. I wanted backless so that they wouldn't take up as much visual room. And I wanted ones large enough to be comfortable for lingering in the kitchen. These are absolutely perfect. I could not be more pleased. The metal and 'leather' look great with my granite countertops. Very sturdy and comfortable.  Did I mention they are great?
