Bar Stools
The primary difference between counter stools and bar stools is height. Bar stools are taller, designed for higher counters (typically bar-height), while counter stools are shorter, intended for standard kitchen counters. This difference in height dictates the overall design, features, and ideal use cases for each type of stool.
Counter Height Bar Stools:
- Height: Generally have a seat height of 24-27 inches (61-69 cm).
- Designed for: Standard kitchen counters, which are typically 36 inches (91 cm) high.
Bar Stools:
- Height: Typically have a seat height of 28-32 inches (71-81 cm).
- Designed for: Bar-height counters, which are usually 40-42 inches (102-107 cm) tall.
