Know before you buy
Measure the distance from your floor to the underside of your counter or bar top. A 24-inch stool is ideal for standard 36-inch high kitchen counters, while a 30-inch stool is designed for 42-inch high bar counters.
The swivel is designed for smooth, seamless movement and typically does not require regular maintenance. It is built for heavy, daily use to ensure long-term reliability.
The solid wood seat offers a classic, easy-to-clean surface that highlights the natural grain of the hardwood. Upholstered seats provide extra cushioning and comfort for longer periods of sitting, with options ranging from standard fabrics to durable, spill-resistant Crypton and genuine leathers.
Felt glides are best for hardwood or tile floors to prevent scratching and allow for quiet movement. Nylon glides are more durable and better suited for carpeted areas.
The metal footrest cover is an optional feature that protects the wood finish from wear caused by shoes. It is a practical addition if you anticipate high-traffic use or want to preserve the pristine look of the wood over time.
All available hardwoods are premium choices, but they vary in hardness and grain pattern. For example, Hickory and Hard Maple are exceptionally dense and resistant to dents, while Cherry and Walnut offer distinct color profiles that darken beautifully over time.
