Know before you buy
The 24-inch stool is designed for standard counter-height surfaces, typically around 36 inches high. The 30-inch stool is intended for bar-height surfaces, which are usually 42 inches high.
The contoured saddle shape is designed to distribute weight evenly and promote better posture. While it lacks a backrest, the ergonomic curve provides more support and stability than a flat wooden seat.
No, these joints are integrated into the internal structure of the stool to ensure maximum strength and stability. The exterior maintains a clean, seamless appearance consistent with high-quality Amish craftsmanship.
Glides are recommended if you plan to place the stools on hardwood or tile floors to prevent scratching. If you have carpet or rug-covered floors, they are generally unnecessary.
All available hardwoods are durable, but species like Hard Maple and White Oak are exceptionally dense and resistant to dents. Softer woods like Brown Maple offer a smooth, uniform grain that takes stains very well, though they may show wear more easily in high-traffic homes.
Yes, the backless design is specifically intended for space-saving. Because there is no backrest, the stools can slide entirely under most standard counter overhangs when not in use.
