I had wanted to order the 30 bar height stools that were the same as 24 stools we have from old old house. I clicked on these by mistake and didn't realize it until they were here and we were putting them together. Visually they look much bigger than the older stool but they are not that much deeper. When I realized the mistake, I considered returning them but then we figured out that none of our friends and relations were petite, the arms and wider seat will hold anyone and are very comfortable. It turned out to be a good mistake, If you have the room, go big or go home! Worked out well for us.
