What Size Bar Stools Do I Need

There are three main heights for bar stools: counter height, standard and extra-tall. Counter height stools are around 23 to 28 inches tall, giving them enough clearance to fit a 35-37 inch high counter. Standard bar stools are 20 to 32 inches tall which can be paired with table heights between 41 to 43 inches. If you have a tall bar for a man cave or game room, you’ll need extra-tall bar stools or pub height bar stools. These chairs measure between 33 to 36 inches. If you have children or want a chair that can be personalized to you, you can choose an adjustable bar stool.

What Are The Different Bar Stool Materials?

Bar stool frames are generally made from wood or metal. This trend provides homeowners with superior comfort and durability, ensuring that their bar stools can handle the wear and tear of many brunches, dinner parties and holidays. However, bar stool upholstery can range from durable polyester to thick cotton to a supple leatherette. Learn more about bar stools with our Bar Stool Buying Guide.
