These chairs are so not worth it. I would not recommend these chairs to anyone. Arrived damaged and had a heck of a time getting the manufacturer to do anything about it, or even to care. Still have malfuntioning chairs. As well, the base is very lightweight and tippy. Sheer aggravation and disappointment with this purchase. Major buyer's remorse.

Initially ordered two of these stools, one arrived quickly, the second a few weeks later. This should have been my tip off that there was going to be a problem. The chairs were both black, well, kind of. The `faux leather' on the first stool had a shine to the faux leather; the second one had a matte finish, so the two stools didn't quite match. Within the first three months, the edging where the back and front pieces come together started to peel off, can't tell if this is glue or the edge was melted to prevent it from fraying. Doesn't matter anyway, since, at six months the faux leather started ripping along the stitching where the front panel was sewn to the back panel. Noticed I wasn't the only customer with this problem. I love the design of these chairs, but, the quality of them is...well...a synonym for `STOOL'. Appropriate, isn't it?
For the price, these should have lasted much longer. Based upon what others have said, I figured I would be wasting my time to get them fixed. My previous set of barstools had lasted 12 years, now I wish that I had kept them and had them reupholstered.

This stool only lasted 6 mos. At 3 mos. the vinyl started to rip at the stitches in several places. At 6 mos. the gas piston failed and will now only stay in the full down position. The mfr. offered me a new piston but it cannot be removed for replacement. They sent me a new seat but I don't expect it to last. I also bought the backless version of this same stool at the same time and it too is ripped at the stitches.Winsome Wood Air Lift Adjustable Stools, Set of 2 These stools are very poor quality.

The edges of the seats started fraying within a few months. They are made very cheap rexine. Now I'll have to throw them away. Also the rubber covering on the levers that raise/lower you were broken right from the beginning.

We just bought four to fit our modern loft kitchen island. They fit perfect and were also recommended by our architect. We really like the chrome bottoms, the foot rests, and they adjust very easy. Swivel is fine. Okay, it is faux leather, but they still look great. You won't be disappointed.

This product was easy to assemble and did not require any tools other than the wrench that was shipped with the product. The stool operates the way I expected and I use both the high and low settings.
