Ashley Furniture Signature Design - Valebeck Tall Upholstered Swivel Barstool - Casual Style - Light Brown

Very sturdy and a bit heavy. Well engineered and went together easily. Don't tighten all the screws until assembled and standing up. Comfortable for a stool.

I needed a stool in my kitchen to use to while sitting at the counters and sinks etc.. The stool needed to be a certain height and width to fit between the counters and center island as well as fit through the doorways and into the pantry and laundry room. I have nerve damage in my legs and spine so standing still in one spot is not possible. I must be able to sit almost immediately when I need to stand still. I've been looking for over 3 months at all types of stools and chairs hoping to find a stool that was well built and sturdy and fit my budget. I chose this pub height stool after comparing hundreds of chairs and stools and reading tons of reviews. The main issue with this stool was the height of the seat. I needed a stool with a seat height about midway between the height of the counter stool and pub stool. I just couldn't find a stool that height. I liked the looks of this one and the reviews were better than most of the others within my budget. I ordered the taller pub stool hoping that the solid wood legs could be shortened to the height that I needed. I asked my brother. He agreed that the legs could be shortened using my table saw so we can get a nice clean cut at the right angle so the legs will fit the stool perfectly. I'll update this review if we have any problems shortening the legs on this stool' The box the stool arrives in is very large and heavy. The parts to the stool are very well packed and labelled. I put the stool together myself for the most part. The directions are very good though a little confusing at first. I only needed a little help when attaching the foot rest to the chair legs because I couldn't hold the foot rest in place, install the screws and then the nuts at the same time. So you may need a helper for that step and possibly tightening all the screws as the end of assembling your stool. I'm very happy with my new stool! It really looks great in up my kitchen. I love the style, colors the sturdiness of this bar stool. I prefer the woven seat cover instead of the vinyl seat that may crack with use and will stick to your skin when you sit on it for a while.

1 bought 3 of these chairs. They look great BUT one of them is uneven. It rocks a bit.

Very nice barstool with a price that won’t break the bank. I bought the dark brown bar height stool with the light colored cushion. I weigh 250# and it’s very easy to sit on and it swivels great! Simple to assemble with all the hardware and allen wrench included.

These bar stools are very well made, heavier than I thought and very comfortable. I was pleasantly surprised on the packaging as nothing was damaged and was very easy to assemble. I ordered 6 for my basement bar and they look awesome. Took about 15 minutes to install each stool. Helps if you use a longer handled Allen wrench but they do supply a short one. But overall very impressed with the quality for the price point.
