We have had these bar stools for about a month now and love them. We entertain a lot and our guests rave about how comfortable they are. They are easy to wipe down and clean-great when you have little kids. The base is sturdy and they were easy to put together. The 4 floor protectors on each base are actually plastic and one cracked with minimal use. We put felt covers over all of the legs of our furniture to protect our flooring, so this wasnt a big deal to us. Overall we are very happy with these and would definitely recommend! Especially given the inexpensive price.
