Upholstered bar stools

Match the furniture to how each room is used

Think about the room this piece will live in before you settle on it. A banquet hall that clears every Sunday wants chairs that lift and stack, while a bar with regulars wants a stool that stays put. Save each choice to the venue plan for that room, with its finish noted, so a second order matches the first.

Padded seats suit a bar where guests stay for dinner; with upholstered bar stools, decide on swivel or fixed first, then the vinyl color.

Choose the upholstery with the model

Check the upholstery options available on the exact product and keep the chosen material with its configuration. Use the listed care instructions and request samples when you need a physical color or texture reference.

Measure your actual counter

Check the listed seat height against the counter or bar where the stool will be used. Measure the underside as well as the top surface, and account for aprons and footrests.

Venue plans

The last hour at the bar is spent sitting, and the stool decides whether guests stay for it. This page holds 109 upholstered bar stools, most on metal frames, with padded seats and nearly all with padded backs. Measure your bar height and the run of the bar first, because seat height and stool width set how many guests fit.

Height and spacing at the bar

At a bar of roughly 40 to 42 inches, look for seats near 29 to 31 inches. Seat heights in this group cluster in that range: 31 inches leads, 30 inches follows, and the rest fall at 29 1/2, 29 3/4, 30 1/4 or 31 1/2 inches. Check the figure on each product page against your own bar. For counters at 34 to 36 inches, a seat of 24 to 26 inches is right, and those stools sit under counter stools.

Spacing comes next. Leave 24 to 30 inches between the centers of neighboring stools. Wide stools need the upper end of that range: a bar stool here measures 25 3/4 inches wide, while a narrow metal bar stool is 15 1/4 inches, so a 20-foot bar seats very different numbers depending on the choice.

Buckets, backs and swivels

Bucket seats are the largest group, 66 of the 109, and they hold a guest in a way a flat seat does not. Thirty-eight have an upholstered back instead of a bucket. Fifty-five swivel, which lets guests turn to the room or a neighbor without dragging the stool, and ten have arms. Covers are nearly all vinyl, with a few fabric choices. Prices start around $98.

These are indoor stools. Padded seats and covers belong under a roof; for the terrace bar, look to patio stools instead.

If these stools join a run you already own, measure an old stool's seat height and width before you order, and ask for a fresh vinyl swatch. A bar where every third stool is a shade off is the first thing a regular will mention.

Matching the bar to the dining room

Few houses use one stool everywhere. A club might put upholstered stools at the main bar and backless ones at a standing rail. Compare swivel bar stools, bucket bar stools and backless bar stools for the rest of the bar, and upholstered chairs in the same cover for the dining room behind it.

Lay out the bar run in Venue plans with the stool width and spacing marked, and count seats before you order.
