So I had to do a LOT of research to find a barstool with a FLOOR TO SEAT height that was high enough to reach this high bar area that my apartment has. Needless to say these are one of the higher ones I could find at 32 inches from floor to seat being the highest they go. They work pretty well and are a decent sturdiness. They do come with a slight smell but it’s not a bad smell, just a little strange from being in a box most likely. One of them makes a creaky sound like it’s going to break when you stand up off of it but I hope it’s just because they are new and breaking in. They are also very stylish and neutral so they match furniture well and look really nice! If you’re on the fence I would say go for it for the price, especially compared to some other options. Hope this helps.
