To determine the ideal height for your wood bar stool, measure the distance from the floor to the underside of your kitchen island or bar. Subtract between 25-30cm from this measurement. This difference represents the ideal seat height for your bar stool, ensuring comfortable legroom. For standard kitchen counters (89-91cm high), choose a bar stool with a seat height of around 61-66cm. Standard bar heights (101-107cm) require bar stools around 76-81cm high. For extra tall bars (114-122cm), look for bar stools with a seat height between 81-86cm. Remember, our wood bar stools typically have a total height between 87-102cm and seat heights between 65-69cm.

To keep your wood bar stools looking their best, regular dusting with a soft, dry cloth is essential. For more thorough cleaning, wipe them down with a slightly damp cloth and a mild detergent, then dry immediately to prevent watermarks. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners, which can damage the finish. For spills, clean them up promptly to prevent staining. Protect your wood bar stools from excessive sunlight and heat, which can cause fading and cracking. Always check the product's page for specific care and cleaning recommendations, as some materials may have special requirements.

To style wood bar stools with your dining chairs, consider the overall aesthetic you want to achieve. If your dining chairs have wooden elements, matching the wood tone and finish of the bar stools creates a cohesive look. If your chairs are upholstered, choose bar stools with a complementary fabric or leather. For example, if your chairs are a light grey fabric, wood bar stools with a light or natural finish would work well. You could also introduce a pop of colour or pattern with cushions on the bar stools that tie in with your dining room's colour scheme. Consider the height of your bar stools in relation to your kitchen island or counter. If your dining chairs have metal legs, consider incorporating metal accents into your bar stools, such as footrests or frame details, to create a sense of harmony.
