Collection: Bar Stools

Choosing bar stools

• Measure first: measure from the floor to the top of the counter or island, then keep about 10 to 12 in (25 to 30 cm) between the seat and that surface.
• Back or backless: a backrest supports you through long meals, while a saddle stool tucks fully under the counter.
• Swivel or fixed: a swivel stool makes it easier to get in and out in tight spaces and to turn toward the conversation.
• Upholstery: faux leather wipes clean in seconds, velvet feels cozier and solid wood stands up well to daily use.

Frequently asked questions

What is the difference between a bar stool and a counter stool?

Height. For a standard counter of about 36 in (91 cm), the seat is 24 to 26 in (61 to 66 cm); for a bar of about 42 in (107 cm), it is 29 to 31 in (74 to 79 cm).

How many stools fit around a kitchen island?

Allow about 24 in (61 cm) of width per stool, a bit more for swivel or armed models. Divide the island length by that figure.
