I was hesitant about ordering these bar stools online because I couldn't see and touch them. I read all of the reviews and decided to take a chance on ordering them.  What sold me was that people said that the color of them was a rich, deep brown, that they looked elegant and were sturdy. Boy, am I glad I ordered them!  They are very nice looking and exceeded my expectations.  They definitely look like they cost a lot more than they actually did and they fit the room perfectly.  Also, they were easy to put together. I highly recommend these bar stools.  If you like the way they look in the picture, you'll be quite pleased when you get them shipped to you.
