I am very happy with these chairs. They are very comfortable.  Although they are probably a little low for my island, that’s because I failed to measure.  (FYI, the top of my island is 42”.  The top of the chair back is 39”) so they slide under the island. No biggie. I’m going to get a new kitchen next year so I’ll design the new island to accommodate these chairs. My family sometimes have long card games seated around the island.  No one ever complains that they are uncomfortable. I also like that they aren’t too heavy and can easily be pulled out when you want to take a seat.  Easy to assemble and they look very stylish.
