I was looking for a stool that was modern and understated. The delivered. This set of three took less than 20 minutes to assemble all three. All the hardware is provided, which is a definite plus. The faux leather top is easy to clean and has gorgeous zig-zag stitch detail, contrasting well with the black frame. I loved the height of these stools in particular, as they rise just above our island without dominating the space. We have a 12-inch overhang, and these tuck under perfectly. I cannot recommend these highly enough; they are excellent value for money.
