Know before you buy
The seat height is 25.75 inches. This is standard for a counter-height stool, typically designed for surfaces that are 36 inches high.
You can clean the seat with soap and water, drying it immediately with a soft cloth. For tougher stains, a 1:10 dilution of bleach or hydrogen peroxide is safe to use.
No, this stool is designed specifically for indoor use. Exposure to direct sunlight and outdoor heat can damage the materials.
Yes, the Alfi Counter Stool arrives fully assembled and ready to use right out of the box.
The seat is made from a blend of recycled polypropylene and wood fiber. This creates a unique, matte, and slightly textured finish that feels warm and organic to the touch, rather than like standard smooth plastic.
No, the Alfi Counter Stool is not stackable. Its four-leg base design is engineered for stability rather than storage efficiency.
