It's sleek and comfortable and extremely reasonably priced.  My criticism is the same as other reviewers (the footrest does not go all the way around or at least move with you as you swivel).  It's nice to have the adjustable height feature on a stool without having to have just the round base/pedestal style.  Also, solid foods wipe clean easily, but for foods that typically leave a stain (curries, pasta sauce, etc...i don't recommend getting the white) because it does retain some of the stain
