White is yellow/cream not white
March 27, 2013
Nice design, very sturdy, good value but it's more yellow with a green cast than a white! Has to be white to work in my kitchen and now must have it painted a "real" white. Too much of a pain to return it and look for something else. Looks white in the catalog and on line so be warned!

Great Barstool
December 29, 2012
The product was better than expected. Very happy with it.
The shipping however, left something to be desired. Took forever on back order. I wanted to order another one, and they were back ordered again until January. Ticked me off, because I could have taken advantage of the free delivery days in December.

Color totally off!
November 7, 2012
I ordered the white stools and they came in an ivory, off white, yellowish finish. Very different from the color depicted online and in the catalog. It didn't work for me so I sent them back. Disappointed I still had to pay so much in shipping charges when I don't have any stools. The stools themselves seemed okay except for one or two splinters in the rush seats.

Backless Barstool
October 8, 2012
We looked for a very long time for the perfect bar stools for our new kitchen and we found them in the cream colored Napoleon Backless Barstool. We love them.

Helps Height Challenged Couples!
December 18, 2011
We looked long and hard for barstools. Our requirements: simple lines, comfortable, and MOST important, it had to fit both my very tall husband (6'6") and me (about a foot shorter!) We both found that different heights of the foot rest rungs would be comfortable for each of us. His knees were much too high at a height which I found comfortable - his preference for lower rungs would cut into the back of my thighs. The Napoleon barstool was the ONLY stool we could find which was comfortable for us both. The varying height of the rungs offers four different heights (depending on which way you turn the backless barstool) on which to rest our feet.
We wish that the seat was a little wider, perhaps 16x16. Or that Pottery Barn sold box cushions to fit the top (to add a little more comfort). Other than that, we are very happy with our purchase! Thank you Pottery Barn, for helping this height challenged couple!

Love these
November 7, 2011
We purchased two of these stools a couple of years ago and we were very happy with them. We recently moved to a new home and needed a total of four bar stools. I was pleased that these were still in production, so I just ordered two more. They've arrived and are perfect. The old stools look exactly the same (though the rush seat has darkened in color slightly from use.) The seat is comfortable --not scratchy -- and the styling went well in our very traditional home, and our new, more modern style home. Love these.

Super quality backless stools! They fit under counter to tidy up the workspace around the kitchen island! Exactly what I was looking for and sturdy for the toughest kids!

Great Addition!
September 29, 2011
The stools are well made and come already assembled! They look great in the kitchen and since most stools are 24" these are 26"- they are more comfortable sitting at the kitchen counter. Only draw back is cost of shipping. Would recommend

These are the perfect height for the bar in our island. The color is beautiful and matches our cabinets perfectly. They are simple, have nice lines, and are just what we needed in our kitchen! Love them!

Comfortable barstools
July 1, 2011
I have had these for a about a month now. They are comfortable and very sturdy. I love that they came assembled - just take of the box. The vintage honey works great with my honey maple cabinets.

Beachy Look
June 29, 2011
Love the stools, and their quality. The only thing they are slightly more cream in color than the catalog showed, wished they were a little more ivory, but love them just the same. They blend quite well with the ivory kitchen cabinets. Loved the fact they came quickly after ordering!

Counter Stools
May 17, 2011
Very happy with purchase. Bought cheaper stools three years ago that have begun to fall apart. These were about 30% more, but are much sturdier, and have more design detail. Very happy with order process and timliness of delivery.

Perfect complement
May 4, 2011
We recently completed a re-model of our kitchen and were looking for island barstools to complement our new Tuscan look. These stools fit the bill!. The online photos were perfect representations of the actual stools, too. They not only are attractive but also well constructed and sturdy.

Comfortable barstools
April 19, 2011
I purchased 3 of the Napoleon barstools (in mahogany) about a month ago and we have been using them literally for every meal especially during the week. They are very comfortable and fit perfectly in the limited space that I have in the kitchen. Unfortunately, I started seeing some scratches and the rush seat of one of them is already tearing. We are trying to be very careful but the barstools are meant to be used, not displayed only. Pottery Barn sent me a touching paint for the scratches and I am hoping that the seats will survive longer than a couple of months.

Great poduct, excellent value
March 1, 2011
I wanted a low profile stool so not to block the view from the kitchen into the family room. So glad I picked these. No assembly required. They were really easy to take out of the box. We've been using them for a couple of months now and we couldn't be happier.

Great Barstool!
March 1, 2011
Purchased three of these in the honey color. They are well made and sturdy enough that I don't worry about my young kids tipping them over. I love the backless look - keeps our bar area clean and uncluttered.
