I have tall tables in my shop so I can stand at them for large projects, but for smaller projects, I wanted a high chair so I can sit at the tables.  This chair reaches 30 inches, and has a foot rest.  It is perfect for what I wanted, and it gives very good back support.  It was very straight forward to put together.  I also appreciate the fact that the arms fold back so that I can pull close to the table without the arms interfering.  Appears to be well made, and well engineered.
