I was originally drawn to this stool because the seat is leather like and easily cleaned.  However this is the part of the stool that has given us the most problem and why I am now trying to get rid of them.  The seat is a little small and my husband and I are NOT big people.  About three weeks after we started using the stools the screws that fasten on the seat started to fall out. We would put them back in and they would fall out over and over ... I think from the vibration of just moving the chair.  We have a puppy and the last thing we want is her swallowing a screw from the chair that just will not stay in.   The screws are just wood screws that go in the bottom of the seat and there is nothing to keep them in.  Bottom line is this is not a safe stool for my family.
