We recently remodeled and constructed a gorgeous walnut bar.  I shopped for 6 months online and in stores; ordered bar stools and sent them back.  I needed backs that were tall enough for support, but low enough not to hit the bar when swiveling, another must have, and I needed them comfortable enough to enjoy sitting at the bar.  These stools fit all of our criteria!  We ordered 2 and promptly ordered 2 more.  They are gorgeous, unique, comfortable and after 2+ months, still feel very stable.  I love them, and so do our guests.  The hubs says they were easy enough to put together
