Counter Height Stools

How to Choose Counter Height Stools

Counter height stools are made to pair with standard kitchen counters and islands. The correct seat height allows comfortable seating without knees hitting the countertop. When selecting counter height stools, consider back support, footrests, and spacing of 24–26 inches per stool for a balanced layout.

Frequently Asked Questions About Counter Height Stools

What height should bar stools be for my kitchen counter or bar?

For a standard 36-inch kitchen counter, bar stools should have a 24–26 inch seat height. This leaves about 10–12 inches of space between the seat and the underside of the counter for comfortable leg room. For a 40–42 inch bar top, choose bar stools with a 28–30 inch seat height so you sit at the correct height for the surface.

How many bar stools will fit at my kitchen island?

A simple rule is to allow 21–24 inches of counter width per bar stool. For a 6-foot (72 inch) island, that usually means three stools. For an 8-foot (96 inch) island, four stools is comfortable. If your stools have arms or very wide seats, plan for a little more space so guests are not bumping elbows.

What is a counter height stool?

A counter height stool is designed for a standard 36-inch kitchen counter or island. The ideal seat height is 24–26 inches, which gives you about 10–12 inches of space between the top of the seat and the underside of the counter. This clearance creates a comfortable sitting position for most adults.

Can I use counter height stools at a bar-height counter or raised bar?

No. Bar-height counters and raised bars are usually 40–42 inches tall, which is too high for 24–26 inch counter height stools. You would feel too low at the surface. For bar-height counters, choose bar stools with a 28–30 inch seat height so you sit at the right level.

How many counter height stools do I need for my kitchen island?

To estimate how many counter height stools you need, measure the length of your island and divide by 21–24 inches. A 72 inch (6-foot) island typically fits three counter stools, while a 96 inch (8-foot) island usually fits four. This spacing gives each person enough room to sit comfortably without feeling crowded.

Are your counter height stools suitable for Canadian homes and condos?

Yes. Our counter height stools are selected for Canadian kitchens, from compact condo islands in Toronto and Vancouver to larger family homes. Many designs have slim profiles that tuck fully under the counter, and are available in easy-clean materials that work well for everyday use in busy Canadian households.
