Christopher Knight Home Avondale Backless Counter Stools, 2-Pcs Set, Beige

I’m elated about this purchase! Like nobody should ever be this excited about some damn chairs! However, I have been trying to find the perfect barstools for probably a good year now. Either the height was wrong, or the color, or sold out, or my favorite one of all…won’t ship to Alaska! When I finally came across these I thought there was no way they were also an affordable set. Had to be too good to be true. But when I received them about a week later, they were super simple to assemble and the fit, color, comfort, everything was just right. So yes I’m extremely happy with my barstools 🤗

We've been looking for something more "contemporary", yet comfortable, to place in our kitchen as a replacement to our standard height bar stools. You can see from the first picture how these compare to a standard-sized stool.First of all, these are super easy to put together. You almost don't need instructions. These come unassembled in a relatively dense/heavy, but well-packed box. Included is an Allen/hex wrench, but you will still have to use your own Phillips head screwdriver for some of the steps. A nice touch is a separate small bag with an extra set of hardware: screw, washers, bolt...nice touch in case you're ever short one.I won't belabor how easy it is to put these together, but will make three observations, one of them funny (to me at least):- Putting everything together went very smoothly with very well-marked (and few) pieces; not as onerous a task as many other items I have put together. The bolts fit perfectly, as did the washers. The holes into which the bolts went into were built into/recessed into metal fittings built into the legs. There was no slack in anything as far as the bolts and the legs.- Only minor "nit" for me was that instructions also called for using some long Phillips head screws (included) to connect the short and long supporting "stretchers" to the legs. As I mentioned, the bolts connecting the legs to the bottom of the stool were very precise, solidly connected, and to perfect tolerance. However, I had to put a little bit of effort to hold the stretchers tight against the legs while I screwed the screws into the legs through the guide holes in the stretchers. The guide holes were generally precise, but the screws "danced around" ever so slightly while I screwed them in. They eventually went in without a problem, but there were no pre-drilled guide holes in the legs themselves to assure a more perfect alignment; they did the job, just not as well as the bolts holding the legs to the stool. The stretchers had dowel ends that fit into the legs, but just weren't as precise a connection as I would have preferred.The one "funny" item in the instructions that, I think, serves as a testament to how solidly built these stools are is a line that suggests that if the stool wobbles, you "...lift the Stool up 30cm to 50cm (about 12 to 20 inches!) from the ground ...and drop the stool..." to ensure "all parts and gaps reach full alignment". It then provides further instructions for fixing any wobble and alignment. Wow, now that's confidence in the sturdiness of your product!These are built in Malaysia of seemingly good quality wood with few to no blemishes. They are comfortable, albeit a little stiff to sit in initially. It'll take a few uses to break them into the Goldilocks comfort zone. But they feel good to slide right into, rest your elbows on the counter, as the concave cushion caresses your bottom and you start sipping your fine tequila while chatting up a yarn with your favorite chef. Definitely a good buy! I'll be looking at Christopher Knight outdoor furniture when the time comes to redo our patio.

Nice stools

These stools are not bad for the price. Easy to put together, not bad looking, and seem sturdy. Time will tell how they hold up.

Absolutely love my stools. They are solid, and suit my bench aera well.Would definitely recommend.

This product arrived fast and was easy to put together. The stools are sturdy with adjustable feet, comfortable and looks great!

These are pretty much as advertised, but they had a much cheaper looking appearance in person. We ended up buying different stools as the design looks dated and clashed with our interior, but they are pretty comfortable and effective if that’s all you’re looking for.

These counter height bar stools are very sturdy, made well, and are just the right height for a kitchen countertop bar. I did spray my cushion tops with waterproofing to keep them from getting dirty. I am quite pleased with how nice these were for the money!

Love these. Came already assembled. They look great and are very comfortable to sit on even though they don't have a back support.
