We really like our stools! They have a bit larger seat and the fabric/cushion make it comfortable to sit on for longer sessions. We initially had an issue with our order - a stool was missing hardware. The company, Nathan James, took great care of us. They sent us a new stool straight away and sent us a gift for our (small) troubles. The best part is that since we got to keep the stool that was incomplete, we now have a supply of replacement parts should anyone spill wine down the cushion.
