Grandin Road's exclusive collection of bar stools sets itself apart with an unparalleled range of designs, customized details, and high-end craftsmanship. Discover why their artistic selection of bar stools deserves a seat at your table.
Selecting the Perfect Bar Stools for Your Space
With so many sizes, materials, and designs to choose from, it can be tricky finding the ideal bar stools to suit your needs. Keep these key considerations in mind while browsing options for your kitchen or entertainment area.
Considerations for Choosing Bar Stool Height
Bar stool height is the most important factor for ensuring a proper and comfortable fit at your counter. There are two main bar stool heights to choose from:
- Standard counter height: 24-28 inches high. Best for 36-inch counters.
- Bar height: 30-34 inches high. Best for taller 39-43 inch counters or bars.
Take measurements of your existing counter or table height before selecting a stool height. If your counters or tables are an unusual height, opt for customizable or adjustable-height stools.
Picking the Right Bar Stool Size and Shape
Beyond the height, pay attention to bar stool dimensions that affect comfort:
- Look for seats at least 15 inches wide and deep for movement.
- Backless stools suit tight spaces, while backed models offer more support.
- Swivel capability makes stools flexible, yet stationary models have a more grounded feel.
Determining the Number of Bar Stools Needed
Measure the available space at your counter or bar to determine how many bar stools fit comfortably with enough legroom. As a rule of thumb:
- Allow at least 24 inches of space per stool.
- Spacing stools 30 inches apart offers even more comfort.
