Purchased six of the vail counter stools for our kitchen and the result is almost embarrassingly beautiful. They are expensive, but the craftsmanship is well-aligned with the price. The packing for shipment was superb and impervious to damage en route. The little felt pads had fallen off the feet of a couple of the chairs so check your boxes before you throw them out. The crevices between the leather rolls/tufts on the seats will catch crumbs from my 5 year old (this is common sense, not a criticism of the chair design), but easily wipe through to clean. They are heavy and sturdy with adjustable feet to fix any wobble. As far as stools go, I could lounge in one of these all day and still be comfortable. My husband felt the same and we are 5’6” and 6’5”, so that’s a good stretch. If they are in the right price range for you, you will not be disappointed with the quality. They are honestly breathtaking.
