Know before you buy
Yes, with a seat height of 24.8 inches, these are designed specifically as counter-height stools. They are ideal for standard kitchen counters that typically measure between 34 and 36 inches high.
The natural textured linen weave boucle is durable, but because it is a fabric, we recommend spot cleaning with a damp cloth and mild detergent. Since the padded seats are removable, you can easily access them for more thorough cleaning if needed.
Each Barker bar stool has a weight capacity of 250 lbs, providing a sturdy and reliable seating option for most adults.
Yes, the metal wrapping is designed to protect the solid wood frame from scuffs and scratches caused by shoes. It adds a layer of durability to the high-traffic footrest area while maintaining the stool's aesthetic.
Because these stools are made from solid wood, you may notice unique variations in the grain, color, and texture. These natural characteristics are expected and ensure that each piece has its own distinct look.
Assembly is straightforward and typically takes about 15 minutes per stool. All necessary components are included, and the design is intended for a quick, hassle-free setup.
