Set of 4 Barrel Back Bar Stools in Grey with Sled Metal Frames, 28 Inch Seat

This product is titled as a counter height bar stool. Its own drawing marks the seat at 28 in, which under a standard 36 in kitchen counter leaves 8 in of knee room. With two stools that is a return; with four it is a return that fills a hallway.

Twenty eight inches is the bottom of the bar height band and belongs under a top of about 38 in to 40 in. Put a tape on your counter before you order four of anything, and read the drawing rather than the title when the two disagree.

Four in a row

Sled frames line up more tidily than four legged stools, because there is nothing to splay out and clash with a neighbour. At 19.5 in by 18 in each, four take roughly 7 ft of counter.

Read the seat height

Twenty eight inches to the seat, 33 in overall, a 15 in square cushion and a bar 7.5 in from the floor. The range printed alongside it is 35 in to 43 in, but only the upper half of that works with a 28 in seat.

The curve around the sides

Each shell wraps past your shoulder blades on both sides rather than stopping at your spine. On an armless stool that curve is what stops you tipping sideways when you reach along the bar.

The bar under your feet

Seven and a half inches from the floor is 20.5 in below the seat. That is a long drop, further than published footrest guidance suggests, so taller sitters will find it more natural than shorter ones.

Bar height, for tops of about 38 in to 40 in.

Enough for a long counter.

Curved round the sides of the seat.

Polyester over elastic sponge.

A continuous bent tube, not four legs.

What we stand behind

• The 15 in by 15 in seat, the 28 in seat height, the 33 in overall height, the 7.5 in footrest, the 19.5 in by 18 in base and the 330 lb capacity all come from this listing's own drawing.
• The listing's title calls this a counter height stool. Its own drawing marks a 28 in seat, which is bar height, so we describe it as a bar stool.
• The maker's printed range of 35 in to 43 in is wide. At 35 in a 28 in seat leaves 7 in of knee room, so only the upper part of that range is usable.
• This page is the set of four. The same stool is listed separately as a pair.
• Ships from a Canadian warehouse, free shipping over $150. 14 day returns, unused and in the original packaging.

Will these fit a 36 inch kitchen counter?

Not comfortably. A 28 in seat leaves 8 in of knee room there. Aim for a top of about 38 in to 40 in.

Why does the listing say counter height?

The title does not match the maker's own drawing, which marks a 28 in seat. We publish the drawing.

How many stools do I get?

Four. The same stool is listed separately as a set of two.

How do I clean the fabric?

Vacuum the weave and blot spills with a barely damp cloth. Avoid solvents, since no cleaning code is published.
