    Nice wooden/top studio stools that took less than 3 minutes to build. Hard but sturdy.

    First thoughts: I saw these and thought theyd make stylish home studio stools for Vlogging interviews. Theres only 4 parts to build each stool and all tools are included. Clear and concise instructions are provided on a sheet of paper and theres diagrams too. We were watching TV while building them and it still took less than 3 minutes as everything just slots together apart from the seat which requires bolting on. The matt powder coat black paint looks clean and stylish although it does pick up fingerprints easily if theres any oil on the skin. The natural wood top is fresh looking and has a textured surface (it is not sanded level) which is a bit more interesting. There are no seat backs or cushioning so I wouldnt expect to spend an evening sitting on them, but for short periods and sitting in front of the camera theyre great. Detail and things to note (See pictures): 4 part stool consisting of the seat, base, lift lever/footrest section and the gas lift rod section. 3 parts slot together without any screws and finally the seat connects to the top with 4 fixings. Everything you need is in a little bag tied to the foot rest. The base has a rubber ring on the bottom to prevent damage to hard floors. The gas lift system is smooth with an inch or so bounce for absorption/comfort so its not a solid shock if you sit down fast. The seat and footrest once connected to each other can rotate 360 degrees. Easy to adjust the height with the lift handle. The movement is incredibly smooth. Final thoughts: Decoration of the home studio is nearing completion and these make a nice addition to the studio furniture and will match the finished colour scheme. Im an athletic 17.5 stone and the stools dont feel flimsy under my weight. I really like them and would recommend them for kitchens, hobby rooms or anywhere that requires moving around with an occasional resting spot. If you plan to be seated for hours then you might have to consider padding or a cushion.
