These were purchased to replace oak bar stools that had backs and were really heavy to move and clean under.  I was very hesitant to replace them, but I am really glad I did.  These are really nice and they are not hard for me to move and they are comfortable.  The product is a really good value for the price and they look really great.  I would recommend these bar stools to anyone.  I love the way they fit under the bar and that give you more room.
