Carry out measurements
Bar stools are different in height, so firstly, it’s essential to consider the most suitable height for your needs. Estimate the height of a stool from the footing/floor to the seat and not the seatback. The right way to estimate the height of a stool is to first assess the kitchen bar height. Estimate from the base/floor to the bar, table, or islands under-side. Then deduct 25 to 30 cm from the calculated height and you will get an ideal kitchen height of a stool. It’s a good way to know your measurements ahead of time to narrow your choices down immensely.
Adjustable height
These stools contain the mechanism of a hydraulic gas lift to assist you to reach a relaxing height when you get seated. Never leave an idea to purchase a standard gas-lift stool that can defy daily usage.
High back and footrest
A high-backed stool might be an asset worth considering as it is comfortable and offers full support to your back. You can choose this stool from a greater diversity of designs. You may also need to think of a footrest for more convenience and easy access.
Swivel
You can turn around or move from place to place without moving the stool’s base of the stool with the swivel quality. It’s lovely to have a swivel function while you drink your favourite wine on a bar stool.
Space matters
To comfortably sit and move without bothering the next person, each bar stool must be kept 15 cm apart at least. Preferably, this way you can figure out the number of bar stools that will work for your kitchen bar according to this measurement.
What’s prevalent
In most kitchens, the wooden tops made of strong and blending natural materials such as mango wood or rattan with a metal base are a wonderful choice.
However, choosing a bar stool is a personal preference but you should also make ergonomics a key factor when buying a bar stool. You may need to take into consideration the space where you have to place stools, the wood colour of the kitchen bench with a bar stool, durability of the material since the heavier ones are not always stronger.
