Shrunk!
I got these ~5 months ago to match my new table (also from Crate & Barrel) and was very happy up until now... I tried to wash the cover for the first time, and even though I followed the washing instructions exactly and even let them air dry, they shrunk horribly!!! Very disappointed because I loved these otherwise!

Great purchase
I bought 2 of the Black Vintner Barstools to go with my Black Belmont Kitchen Island. The barstools are well made and comfortable, even without the cushions. They come assembled and the box easily fit in XC70 wagon.

Very comfortable
These cushions fit wonderfully on our stools and are very comfy. The stripes disguise lots of spills from my kids and they wipe up pretty well. Fabric is sturdy. One note....they wash nicely in the machine but do not dry. Label says tumble dry low but I found they shrunk up to the point that did not cover the whole seat of chair any longer. So, will just line dry. Crate and Barrell fixed for me and I will definitely buy here again. Great customer service!

Very stylish
I purchase these barstools to replace my old swivel ones.
The quality is as advertised. They were shipped well packaged and no assembly was required.
They are worth the money.
Very comfortable.
Delivered sooner than expected.

Lovely chairs
I have 4 of these chairs, with the latte seat cushions. They work perfectly as dining room chairs or as extra seating in the living room. I highly recommend them (and the cushions are totally worth it!)

Fantastic Chairs
These chairs look great in our apartment, are very comfortable (even without the cushions), and are easy to clean.

Keeping our Kipling Looking New
These chair pads are very attractive and functional. They're stylish but neutral. The stripes will help to hide stains but the neutral tones won't at all limit styling choices in the room. As a prior reviewer said, they're washable too.
We purposely got them to protect our Kipling chairs, which are known to be somewhat delicate but they're a great addition to the look of our set.

Totally worth it
I don't know why I waited so long to get these. I absolutely love them! I bought four of the chairs and have no regrets. Our family includes a teenage boy and we use them everyday. They are quite sturdy and put together well. My only issue was where they have some intentional distressing along the edges so the natural wood shows through the finish. Some places were a little rough - nothing major but might put a snag in your nylons or a fancy blouse if you rubbed against it just right - so I went over those spots ever so slightly with a nail buffer. Took me 5 minutes or less but other than that, they are perfect.

Sturdy and comfy
I purchased these to go with the french marble kitchen island to serve as a pub type table for a breakfast area. These stools are so comfy and look marvelous with the island. I selected these based on the other reviews I read!

Cute with the Avalon 7-pc dining set.
These chair pads look fantastic in person. I went to see them in the store just to be sure, but if I had purchased them online, I would have been thrilled with the result.
They are neutral enough to match different room styles and colors, but not so light that they won't hide an inevitable stain or two. The nice thing, however, is that you can zip the cover off and throw it in the wash.
They look fantastic with our Avalon dining set from C&B.

We love these bar stools!
We bought 6 of these bar stools about 9 months ago as seating for our large kitchen island. They look great and have held up well.
We didn't buy the cushions because they are difficult for my kids to deal with, but they are still quite comfortable. They come fully assembled (which my husband really appreciated) and they do not wobble at all. Plus, they have plastic pieces on the feet to keep them from scratching our hard wood floors...even when my kids drag them around the kitchen!
All in all, they were a great purchase...high quality for the price. We like them so much that we're planning to replace the chairs around our kitchen table with the Vintner dining chairs.
