Features & Considerations

Before you go and start buying your first few barstools, you’ll want to pay attention to some key features that may affect their functionality. Here are a few things we think you should look out for before making your first purchase.

Height

Make sure to choose a bar stool with an appropriate height for your space and setting. Counter-height bar stools are ideal for counters and are usually between 34 and 36 inches tall. On the other hand, bar-height stools are designed for bars and are between 40 and 42 inches.

Materials

Another important aspect of your chair's aesthetic is its material. Wood bar stools offer a classic and warm feel that goes great with traditional bars while metal stools have a sleek and modern aesthetic that better suits industrial or minimal aesthetics. If you are looking for something upholstered and comfortable, a leather barstool is a fine choice as well.

Comfort & Ease of Use

To make your drinking or dining experience better for you and your guests consider additional features such as footrests and armrests. Armrests provide extra support for the arms when sitting and footrests ensure ergonomic seating. Cushioned seats are also a great way to enhance comfort for prolonged seating.

Stability & Durability

Opt for stools that are crafted from quality materials and can provide a sturdy frame. This ensures that your stool will last for years to come. Also, look for stools with nonslip feet or protective pads to ensure stability when in use and can also help protect your flooring.

Types of Bar Stools

Whether you want to create a classic bar look or unveil something with a modern touch, our large selection of stools will surely be able to meet your home bar’s needs. Once you have considered the features and size of your stool you’re going to want to settle on a style to complement your space. Here we have compiled a few of our favorite styles of stool to help you create your next look.

Backless Stools

If you’re looking for a classic option that is compact and lightweight, you can’t go wrong with a backless bar stool. These stools feature a sleek and minimal design that is perfect for small and large spaces and can be tucked under counters. They are a great all-around option but can make a great counter or kitchen bar stool where space efficiency is essential.

Stools With Backs

If you are looking for a more luxurious option that offers extra comfort where it counts, choose bar stools with backs. These stools provide added support and comfort with a backrest which is great when lounging for extended periods. They are available in high or low-back designs for varying aesthetics and preferences. Some versions even come with added armrests which can make for a classy and elegant look.

Swivel Stools

For those who seek some extra functionality and want to keep the good times going, make sure to check out our swivel bar stools. These types of stools have a rotating seat for convenience and ease of movement. Their flexibility makes them great for entertaining and allows you to turn around to talk, drink, or laugh with others. They can be great for home bars and kitchens where dynamic seating can be best utilized.

Adjustable Height Stools

For the most versatile seating arrangement that can be used just about anywhere, you’re going to want an adjustable bar stool. Their hydraulic or manual mechanisms make it easy to customize their height and accommodate various counter heights. If you are constantly moving your chairs around or have multipurpose spaces, a stool with adjustable heights is a good piece of furniture to have in your arsenal.

What Are the Best Types of Bar Stools for Kids or Older Users?

When seating kids or users of older age, safety and comfort should definitely be a top priority. Make sure to select bar stools that feature:

• Back support for comfort and safety

• Armrests to make it easier to stand and sit

• Non-swivel bases for added stability

• Footrests for proper posture and comfort

Are Metal Bar Stools Suitable for Coastal or Humid Environments?

Generally speaking, any type of raw metal is not suitable for wet environments as they are prone to rusting, but you can still achieve the look you like by opting for treated metals. Powder-coated or galvanized steel bar stools are your best bet when it comes to furnishing your home due to their ability to resist rust as opposed to raw metal, which may corrode near saltwater or high humidity.

What Materials or Finishes are Easiest to Clean?

If you’re looking for stylish options with easy maintenance, we’ve got your back. Faux leather and vinyl seats are some of the best low-maintenance options that are great at resisting stains and spills, especially around kids. Powder-coated metal frames are also another great choice also due to their resistance and ease of wiping down. Additionally, treated wood can be a more natural and vibrant option that can handle the rigors of a chaotic household.
