I was very excited about these counter stools because I had been looking for awhile.  They are comfortable and my kids use them and I can wipe their greasy hand prints off which is nice, but their crumbs get stuck in between the seat seams.  I bought the gray and it is a very dark grey.  I wanted to return it at first because I had pictured it being a few shades lighter, but they have grown on me.  I like how the rubber on the bottom helps with not ruining my wood floors!
