Keep in mind these are real leather, therefore they are worth spending a little bit more for, compared to other stools.  The are very well cushioned and the seat is nice and wide.  The seat isn't all that deep, but that's exactly what I was looking for - they fit perfectly underneath my bar. The white/ivory is definitely a shade of ivory, so if you are looking to match a white kitchen, they may be a tad off.  Other than that the are very comfortable and a great addition to my home.
