Set of 2 Backless Wave Seat Gas Lift Bar Stools in Black, 26 to 34 Inch Seat

What the wave does

The dip at the back and the lip at the front hold you in place without a backrest. It is the same idea as a saddle seat, done in a pressed shape rather than a padded one, which is why the stool stays this slim.

Eight inches of travel

Twenty six inches wound down to 34 in wound up, with the footrest ring travelling 8 in to 16 in alongside. Note the bottom of the range: 26 in is already above counter height, so this is a stool for a bar rather than a kitchen island.

Where it sits best

Wound down to 26 in it suits a 36 in to 38 in counter. Wound up to 34 in it reaches a 44 in ledge. That is a wider span than most gas lift stools, and it is the reason to choose one over a fixed height stool.

The profile, side on

Seen from the side the seat is a shallow S. The footrest is a half hoop rather than a full ring, which keeps the front of the stool clear so you can step off it without catching your heel.

What we stand behind

• The 15.5 in by 15 in seat, the 3.5 in thickness, the 26 in to 34 in seat travel, the 8 in to 16 in footrest and the 15 in base all come from this listing's own drawing.
• No weight capacity is published anywhere on this listing, so none is quoted. The white version of the same stool publishes about 264 lb per chair.
• The white version's drawing gives a slightly different range, 25 in to 33.5 in. Each listing's own figures are used on its own page.
• No cylinder class or cycle count is published for the gas lift.
• Ships from a Canadian warehouse, free shipping over $150. 14 day returns, unused and in the original packaging.

What weight will they hold?

This listing publishes no capacity, so we do not quote one. The white version of the same stool gives about 264 lb per chair.

Will they work at a 36 inch kitchen counter?

At the bottom of the range, 26 in, yes. They will not go lower than that, so a 35 in counter is the limit.

Does the footrest move with the seat?

Yes. The half hoop travels 8 in to 16 in as the column rises.

Will the base mark my floor?

The disc carries a 14.1 in rubber ring rather than bare metal, which is what keeps it off a timber board.
