Set of 2 Swivel Counter Stools in Walnut with Hollow Out Back, 24.5 Inch Seat

A stool at a kitchen island sits in the warmest part of the room, next to the hob and under the downlights. A solid timber or upholstered back traps that heat against your shirt, which is why people end up perching forward on the edge of the seat.

This back is cut as three horizontal rails with gaps between them, and the maker leans the whole assembly back rather than standing it upright. Air moves through the openings while the reclined angle still gives you something to rest against.

Where it suits

The stool is counter height, so it belongs at a 35 in to 39 in island or a small pub table rather than a tall bar. Two of them around a round top makes a corner for coffee without needing a dining set.

Twenty four and a half inches up

The seat is 16 in square and sits 24.5 in from the floor, with the stool 38 in overall. Two footrest heights are marked, 7.5 in at the front and 9.5 in at the side, so your feet have a choice as you turn.

Turning without lifting

The seat rotates a full turn on its own plate. At a counter that means you face the room or face the worktop without dragging the legs across the floor, which is what scuffs tile and loosens joints over time.

The details you feel

The seat corners are rounded off rather than left square, which is the difference between brushing past a stool and catching your hip on it. The back rails are shaped on their front face so the edges do not press.

For counters of 35 in to 39 in.

On a plate under the seat.

Three rails, reclined rather than upright.

Dished to take the shape of the hips.

What we stand behind

• The 24.5 in seat height, the 38 in overall height, the 16 in seat, the 7.5 in and 9.5 in footrests and the 15.5 in by 18 in base all come from this listing's own drawing.
• No weight capacity is published anywhere on this listing, so none is quoted. That is unusual for a stool and worth asking about before you order.
• The seat and back are bare sealed timber with no upholstery, so there is no fabric specification to give.
• This product's web address claimed a set of 2 or 4. It has been corrected to set of 2, which is what the title and the listing describe.
• Ships from a Canadian warehouse, free shipping over $150. 14 day returns, unused and in the original packaging.

Is this counter height or bar height?

Counter height. A 24.5 in seat belongs under a 35 in to 39 in island. For a 42 in bar you want a 28 in to 30 in seat.

What weight will it hold?

This listing publishes no capacity figure, so we do not quote one. Ask us before ordering if that matters.

Does the swivel lock?

No lock is described. The seat turns freely through a full circle on its plate.

Is the seat padded?

No. It is shaped timber, dished through the middle to take the shape of your hips, with rounded corners.
