Barstools

How to choose a barstool

Height, style, and material are all important considerations in selecting the perfect piece.

Barstool Height

Height is probably the most important aspect to consider with a new purchase. You want to be able to sit comfortably at your pub tables or kitchen counter. A barstool that is too tall or too short looks disproportionate and uncomfortable. It is best to measure your current table, island, or bar height prior to browsing options and purchase. Visit one of our stores and we can help you find the appropriate counter height stool or adjustable stools for your space.

Style

There are a variety of styles to choose from like backless, stationary, swivel, upholstered, and with arms. Consider the area around the stools to maximize your space and choose the best design. Backless stools are a great option if you’d like to tuck them under the counter when they are not in use. Upholstered stools work well for kitchen spaces where people will be sitting for long periods of time because they are more comfortable than non-cushioned styles. Stationary and stools with arms are a stable and practical seating arrangement. Swivel stools are convenient for movement and limit scooting back and forth.

Material

The material determines the aesthetics of a barstool. CA Barstools carries metal and wood stools in different design options. Metal stools have a sleek look suitable for small spaces with a modern design. Wood products are high quality and more versatile when it comes to the aesthetic of your pace.
