These bar stools are great for the price. they don't take up a lot of room, which is a plus for us. we also have matching arm chairs for our dining area. they aren't super comfortable, but we don't sit on them very much; they are more for looks. they arrived with a few scratches here and there, a small dent in the metal on one (not very noticeable), so that is why i gave it 4 stars. but all in all, to get 4 stools for the price i paid (and free shipping) is a great buy!
