These are great stools.  I am so glad we purchased these - they are extremely well-built and very sturdy.  I love shopping on Wayfair and putting items into their own Idea Board.  I originally chose 6 different stools and put into my “Counter Stools” idea board.  I used the comparison feature offered there and quickly eliminate 4 of the stools because of the dimensions - size of seat and thickness of seat, etc.  These stool have a large saddle seat with a very nice design to the wood  and are comfortable.  I also purchased a set of lower cost stool for use in the garage and office.  You can really tell the difference - the seats are smaller (which we knew) and has less of a curve in the seat so it is not as comfortable.  The [Kassin] Stools are well worth the additional money - for quality and style.  They were very easy to put together.  By the time I got to the 4th stool, it took less than 10 minutes to put together.
