Duane, i am on a fence as you...
Swivel stool, a pro side as I can see it is when you have more than 3 people sitting, you are in the middle and you want to get out...
Another reason why I like it helps to protect your floor from occasional either harsh movement and pressure.
Never liked sidearms on counter stools.
Does anyone have any experience with this manufacturer:

Or this:

They seem to be of a high quality.
What do you guys think?
