Set of 2 Swivel Counter Stools with High Backs and 105 Degree Recline, 26 Inch Seat

Where the recline earns its place

Fifteen degrees past square is a noticeable lean. At a counter people sit at for an hour that is the difference between perching forward over a plate and settling back between courses, which is what a high back is for.

The figures behind it

Sixteen and a half inches across the seat, 26 in up, 39.5 in overall and a 19 in stance. The ring sits 9 in from the floor and the badge reads 355 lb, which is high for a stool built entirely in timber.

A round seat you can wipe

Sixteen and a half inches across is a generous pad for a counter stool, and it is coated rather than woven. At a kitchen counter that is the practical choice, because a counter is where food is.

What the cross brace does

A ring footrest and a cross under the seat. That cross is the reason the maker can print 355 lb: it ties the four legs into the swivel plate instead of letting each leg work on its own.

For counters of 35 in to 39 in.

Fifteen degrees past square.

On a plate under the seat.

What we stand behind

• The 16.5 in seat, the 26 in seat height, the 39.5 in overall height, the 9 in footrest, the 19 in base and the 355 lb capacity all come from this listing's own drawing, which also prints the 35 in to 39 in counter range.
• The 105 degree backrest angle is the maker's own published figure. Very few stools in this range publish an angle at all.
• The 355 lb capacity is a static load figure. Industry guidance is that a load rating alone does not indicate the life or strength of a chair in use.
• No swivel bearing type or cycle rating is published.
• Ships from a Canadian warehouse, free shipping over $150. 14 day returns, unused and in the original packaging.

What does a 105 degree back do?

It leans fifteen degrees past square, so it holds your lower back when you settle rather than pushing you forward. It is a bigger recline than most stools give.

What counter height suits them?

Thirty five to 39 in on the drawing. A 26 in seat under a 36 in counter leaves 10 in of knee room.

Does the swivel lock?

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

How do I clean the seat?

A damp cloth on the faux leather. Blot spills rather than scrubbing and keep the stools out of long direct sun.
