I Love my bar stools.  They added so much to my Tuscan farmhouse kitchen decor. I wasn't sure what I was going to get when I ordered them, but they exceeded my expectations. They are sturdy and the weight of them perfect, not to light or heavy.  I'm so happy with them I can't smile enough. I do want to add that they are very comfortable. The back of the stool fits very good against my back and my husbands back.
