First purchased these swivel counter height bar stools for my remodeled kitchen and love them.  They turn but they don’t turn back to it’s original position.  You have to manually straighten them and I actually prefer that over the ones that swing back on their own.  They are beautiful and very comfortable even for my 6’3” husband.  I now also purchased the matching dining chairs to go with the Gertrude Solid Wood Farmhouse dining table I found also on Wayfair.  Highly recommend this chair.  They are not cheap but worth the price.
