Cushioned Bar Stools

To determine the ideal height for your bar stools, measure the height of your bar or counter from the floor to the underside of the surface. Subtract between 25-30cm from this measurement. This difference is the recommended height for your bar stool seats, ensuring comfortable legroom. For a standard kitchen counter height of 89-91cm, a bar stool height of 61-66cm is suitable. Bar-height tables, measuring around 101-107cm, pair well with bar stools around 71-76cm high. For extra tall bars (around 114-122cm) look for bar stools around 81-86cm high. Always check the product's page for specific measurements and dimensions, as some products may differ. For more information visit our blog post.

Regular care will keep your bar stools looking their best. For routine cleaning of velvet, faux leather, leather, fabric, or boucle upholstery, start by gently vacuuming with an upholstery attachment to remove dust and crumbs. For spills or stains, immediately blot the area with a clean, dry cloth to absorb as much moisture as possible. Avoid rubbing, which can spread the stain. A mild detergent mixed with water can be used for spot cleaning, but always test on an inconspicuous area first. Wipe the area clean with a slightly damp cloth after cleaning. For more stubborn stains, consult the care label or a professional cleaner. Keep your bar stools looking their best by avoiding direct sunlight and sharp objects. Always check the product's page for specific care and cleaning recommendations, as some materials may have special requirements.

Creating a stylish dining area with cushioned bar stools and dining chairs offers both comfort and visual appeal. Consider the height of your bar or counter when selecting bar stools, ensuring enough legroom. For a cohesive look, choose bar stools and dining chairs in complementary colours and materials, such as matching velvet upholstery or similar wood finishes. If your style is more eclectic, you can mix and match different styles but maintain a sense of balance through a shared colour palette or design element. For example, combine sleek metal bar stools with upholstered dining chairs in a similar colour. Cushioned seating adds comfort and warmth, while the combination of bar stools and dining chairs creates a dynamic and inviting space. For more information visit our blog post.

A penny base on a bar stool offers a sturdy, single-leg design, providing stability and a full 360-degree swivel. This allows for easy movement and conversation without the need to reposition the entire stool. Penny bases typically have a circular footrest for added comfort, and their compact design is ideal for smaller spaces, contributing to a clean, uncluttered look.
