I LOVE these Cedar 26" Swivel Bar Stools!!!  I had 3 with backs on them for years but since I moved I needed one more.  I have searched online through thousands (litterly) of bar stools and they don't make them like mine anymore.  And then I found these Stools!  They Almost match and without the backs I was able to use two of them without crowding my table.  Did I mention how much I LOVE them?  If in doubt, you can rest assured that these are very sturdy and I expect them to hold up as good as my old ones.
