Know before you buy
The 24" counter height is designed for standard 36" kitchen counters, while the 30" bar height is intended for 42" high bar tops. Measure from the floor to the underside of your counter to ensure you have at least 9 to 12 inches of legroom for a comfortable fit.
Hardwoods like Hickory, Hard Maple, and Quarter Sawn White Oak are excellent choices for high-traffic areas due to their superior density and resistance to dents. If you prefer a softer look, Cherry and Brown Maple are durable options, though they may show wear more easily over time.
Leather is generally the easiest to maintain, as it can be wiped clean with a damp cloth and is resistant to spills. Fabric options vary in durability, so we recommend choosing a performance fabric if you anticipate frequent use or have children in the home.
The metal footrest cover is a practical addition if you want to protect the wood finish from scuffs and scratches caused by shoes. It is highly recommended for high-traffic kitchens or homes where the stools will be used daily.
Standard wood selections feature a clean, consistent grain pattern with minimal knots. Rustic options intentionally include natural character marks like knots, mineral streaks, and color variations, which add a more organic, lived-in aesthetic to the furniture.
Yes, you can choose between felt or nylon glides to protect your floors. Felt glides are ideal for hardwood or tile surfaces to prevent scratching, while nylon glides are better suited for carpeted areas.
