Stools can be a very handy form of seating, especially if you have a bar or a kitchen island. Taking a few things into consideration will make it easier to find just the right stools in Ephrata PA.
Stool Height
One of the most important considerations is the height of the stool. This is determined by the height of the bar, countertop, or table. If the counter is 40 to 42 inches tall, the stool should be 28 to 30 inches tall, which is considered a bar stool. Use a counter stool between 24 and 26 inches high if your counter is 36 to 39 inches high, and a stool that’s a chair height of about 18 inches from the floor to the seat if the table is between 28 and 30 inches tall. This ensures the counter will be at a comfortable height for anyone sitting on the stools and there will be enough leg room between the seat and the countertop.
Stool Width
The width of the stool will determine how many stools can fit along any given bar or counter. If you choose Stools in Ephrata PA that are between 19 and 22 inches wide, you’ll need between 24 and 25 inches of space for each stool. You’ll need 21 to 22 inches of space per stool if you opt for stools that are 16 to 18 inches wide. This will give you about six inches between each stool. Keep in mind that if the stools swivel or have arms, they’ll take up even more space and fewer will fit along the counter. Try to leave between eight and ten inches between each stool in this case.
Other Considerations
Stools can be either backless or have partial or full backs to give more support. They can be stationary or swivel, and they can have arms or not. Some have padded seats for extra comfort and style. You can choose stools made of wood, metal, plastic, or wicker. Just keep in mind the style of the room where they’ll be and make sure they’ll fit in with the rest of the decor.
