After a lot of looking, the decision was easy.  The stools met all our requirements.  Bar heights was a necessity.  Swivel for ease in getting off and on the stools.  An added bonus of the swivel is that eaters on the stools can easily turn around and become part of the conversation for other groupings in the room.  The design of the legs and foot rest gives a feeling of security to the sitter.  We are really enjoying finding just what we need and want that fills in the gaps or replaces, our existing furnishings for our new apartnent.  Wayfair makes it enjoyable.
