Ok, so the good points are that it feels like a solid stool and there is a nice floor-protecting ring on the bottom. The design is attractive and the color is a really nice charcoal gray.   Packaging was also great.  Here's why I had to return them:  The quality in the seat pad finishing and fabric is below par.  The fabric was sagging before anyone even sat on them and the shaping of the foam seat and front of seat area was misshapen / irregular.  I cannot keep them for those reasons.
