I ordered these bar stools for our newly built home.  After hours of searching online I decided on these because the weight limit is 280 lbs.   I wanted good sturdy bar stools because my husband weighs 235 lbs.  I was surprised when they arrived to find they are very well made and substantial.  I picked the grey and I absolutely love the color. They are a perfect match for my bar.  The are so comfortable and the back of the chair supports our back.  I expect them to last and wear well based on the sturdiness of the chair.  I will be ordering (2) more very soon.
