Love these stools!  Matches well with our walnut and grey accents throughout the kitchen and dining room and soapstone counter. Low to fit under counter so as not to damage soapstone when getting in and out. Although swivels it’s a stiff swivel unless you are in the seat so won’t be spinning them when not in use.  Comfortable with a little bit of lower back support. 
These came in two pieces and went together easily with 4 screws and tool provided. We’ve only had them for less than a week so can’t comment on longevity but they seem to be quite sturdy and well made.   Also can’t comment on how they might chip yet but they came without any chips in the wood. 
Only negative is that I can see that anyone with a large bottom might find them tight but none of our family or friends would have any that issue. I’m looking forward to many years of use.
