Not quite what was expected....
I agree with the other reviewers, that some of the edges under the seat could be filed down and not as sharp, but the edges wouldn't cut your hand - they're just rough. In fact, the entire stool surface is rough - with welds showing and brushed finishes sloppy - so if you're going for an industrial look these are great. My main dissatisfaction is that the color is listed as "vintage" and different photos show the stools as either gray or what I thought was a bronze/sepia/vintage color. The stools I received are definitely gunmetal gray. Have attached a photo comparing to a stainless steel trashcan. I can say they are more comfortable than one might expect.
