Tips & Tricks

  • Measure the distance from the floor to the underside of your bar, counter, or table
  • Select a stool size that allows approximately 10" of space between the highest point of the seat cushion and the underside of the surface
  • As a rule of thumb, bar height stools (30" – 36") for a 40" – 46" underside surface measurement
  • Counter height stools (24" – 29") for a 34" – 39" underside surface measurement (the standard height range for a kitchen counter)
