I am so impressed with the quality of these stools. They are solid wood and have a nice weight to them. The seat is big enough for me to have a kid sitting on my lap at the counter and not feel like I’m falling off. It is a beautiful gray seat and the tone of the wood is perfect and matched what I saw in the photos and reviews. I love the look of the back it reminds me of coral, gives a textured look to a room. W
