Absolutely love these stools. Love the look, sturdiness, and the ease of adjusting the height. All you do is rotate. No annoying pedals and extra moving parts. We also have a 2 year old who can sit in them without us worrying about them tipping over since they have 4 legs. Assembly was super easy as well. Just attatch the bottoms to the tops with four screws. No tools necessary. Great purchase!
