Know before you buy

The reclaimed ash wood frame is durable but should be kept away from excessive moisture. The powder-coated aluminum seat is highly resistant to spills and scratches, while the polished aluminum option offers a reflective finish that may show fingerprints more easily and requires occasional buffing.
Yes, each stool includes both standard and soft plastic glides. You can choose the option that best suits your flooring—hard plastic for carpet or soft plastic to prevent scratching on wood or tile surfaces.
