Bar Stool Versus Counter Stool Height: What’s Right for Your Room
Since the standard counter height is 36 inches, counter stools have a 24-26 inch high seat. Since the standard bar height is 40-42 inches, bar stools have an approximately 34-36 inch high seat. Measure your space to determine which stool height is right for your space. All of our stools and tables list specific dimensions on their product page under Details & Dimensions.
Choosing the Right Materials for Your Counter & Bar Stools
Leather, fabric, or wood stools? The material you choose for your counter or bar stools reflects your personality. Room & Board stocks a large variety of modern counter and bar stools in all of these materials. Stools with a fabric or leather upholstered seat will keep you comfortable, while a modern and sustainably sourced wood stool adds a beautiful touch of natural materials and warmth to your dining space. Room & Board offers all the above, as well as wood stools with upholstered seats so you get the best of both worlds.
Room & Board works hard to use sustainably sourced materials in our counter and bar stools whenever possible, and we partner with artisans across the country to ensure you're getting the best quality counter and bar stools.
Many Room & Board stools have the modern features you're looking for in a stool, like swivel bases, arm rests, seat backs, and stools with height adjustability.

How to Choose Counter & Bar Stools
To find comfortable bar and counter stools, we recommend getting upholstered stools that offer the comfort of fabric/leather and foam cushioning, and have bars across the bottom for your feet to rest. We design all our stools to be comfortable, durable and stylish.
Style wise, we recommend making a free design services appointment or choosing stools that coordinate with the existing colors of your space. Many of our stools echo the designs of our dining chairs, so if you have dining chairs you like, you can probably find similar stools, too. We recommend browsing our Dining Room Ideas gallery to find chair and stool silhouettes that you enjoy, which can point you in the right direction. Consider choosing stools with bases that match your dining table legs or lower cabinets, or choosing fabrics that coordinate with colors found in your dining space rugs. Our How To Choose Dining Chairs guide is equally as helpful for choosing counter and bar stools.
But if you want a quick answer about what stools to get, our customer-favorite counter and bar stools are Cato in synthetic leather or Cato in fabric, Lira in leather, Harriet in fabric, and Cora in fabric.
