These bar stools are very comfortable!  I have a total of 8.  For the price they are of good quality and look great at my bar table.  The legs are wood but painted black (as the description failed to mention) and seems to vary in durability from chair to chair.  Installation was a bit of a pain as the chair arrives unassembled, however we were able to get any missing hardware from Lowe's and got it all taken care of.
