Folding Bar Stool with HDPE Seat and Carry Handle, 27.5 Inch Seat Height, Black

A stool you use for a party or a fishing trip spends the rest of the year in the way. Rigid stools do not stack flat, and most of them are heavy enough that nobody moves them twice.

Folded, this one is 15 in by 2.5 in by 36.5 in and hooks shut with a buckle, so it slides behind a door or into a cupboard. At 5.5 lb you can carry it out to the deck in one hand.

Where a 27.5 inch seat fits

Twenty seven and a half inches is between counter and bar height. The maker marks it for tops of 35 in to 39 in, and it works best at the taller end where it leaves 10 in or more of knee room.

Open and folded

Open, the frame spreads 15 in across the floor. Folded, the whole stool is 2.5 in thick. That second figure is the one that decides whether it actually gets put away.

The seat material

HDPE is the plastic used for outdoor furniture and cutting boards. The maker calls it waterproof, crack resistant and fade resistant, which is why one photograph shows it on a fishing deck.

With a fixing buckle to hold it shut.

Light enough to carry one handed.

Moulded into the seat itself.

Waterproof, crack and fade resistant.

On a powder coated X braced frame.

Covered directly by the manufacturer under their warranty terms for material and manufacturing defects.

What we stand behind

• The 27.5 in seat height, the 36.5 in overall height, the folded size, the 5.5 lb net weight and the 330 lb figure come from this listing's own drawing and copy.
• The title says 27.5 inches and the drawing agrees.
• The maker describes the HDPE seat as waterproof, crack resistant and fade resistant. No weather or UV rating is published for the powder coated frame, so none is claimed.
• One photograph shows the stool on a fishing deck. It is the manufacturer's staging, not a marine or outdoor rating.
• Ships from a Canadian warehouse, free shipping over $150. 14 day returns, unused and in the original packaging.

How small does it fold?

Fifteen inches by 2.5 in by 36.5 in, held shut by a buckle. That is thin enough to stand behind a door.

Can I leave it outside?

The seat is HDPE, which the maker calls waterproof and fade resistant, but no weather rating is published for the frame. Bring it in when you are done.

What surface height suits it?

The maker marks 35 in to 39 in. At 27.5 in the seat leaves 10 in or more under the taller end of that range.

Is it stable when open?

The legs cross in an X with a reinforced base and crossbars, and the feet carry non slip pads. The stated capacity is 330 lb.
