These counter hight stools are just what i was looking for. Comfortable and sturdy and narrow legs. The faux leather is very nice and has a faded old look to it, doesn't scream fake. It's comfortable enough to sit awhile. We didn't want a stool with a back because we have the stovetop in the island with possible spills and splatters. Also we were looking for a stool with a low profile legs as we have a narrow area. The price was also great considering it's for a pair.
