Know before you buy
The 24-inch stool is designed for standard counter-height surfaces around 36 inches, while the 30-inch stool is intended for bar-height surfaces around 42 inches. Measure from the floor to the underside of your counter to ensure you have at least 9 to 12 inches of legroom for comfort.
A standard 360-degree swivel allows the seat to rotate freely in any direction. The memory swivel includes a return mechanism that automatically rotates the seat back to its original forward-facing position when not in use, keeping your seating area looking tidy.
Hardwoods like Hard Maple, Hickory, and White Oak are excellent choices for high-traffic areas due to their superior density and resistance to dents. If you prefer a softer look, Brown Maple is a popular, durable option that takes stains very evenly.
Yes, but we recommend applying felt pads to the base of the legs to prevent scratching. Since these are handcrafted wood stools, protecting your flooring from the weight of the solid wood construction is a standard best practice.
Yes, the Portage Barstool is fully customizable. You can select your preferred wood species first, then choose from our wide range of stain colors to achieve the specific tone and grain visibility you want for your home.
Most Amish-crafted furniture is shipped fully assembled to ensure structural integrity and stability. You can expect your stool to arrive ready to use right out of the box.
