Aldersyde Brown High Back Counter Height Stool (Set of 2)

With a seat height of 24.25 inches, this stool is specifically designed for standard kitchen counters that typically stand 36 inches high. This measurement ensures the recommended 10 to 12 inches of "knee room" between the seat and the underside of the counter, providing an ergonomic and comfortable seating experience for dining or working.

These stools are sold as a set of two, which is perfect for smaller breakfast nooks. For larger islands, we recommend leaving 21 to 24 inches of space per person. Since each stool is 21 inches wide, you should aim for at least 6 inches of clearance between each seat to ensure guests can sit and move comfortably without feeling cramped.

This stool is an ideal fit for smaller spaces due to its streamlined "straight leg" design and 17.25-inch depth. While the high back provides full lumbar support, the open slat-back design maintains a sense of visual "airiness," preventing the furniture from making a compact kitchen feel crowded or enclosed.

Yes. The frame of this stool is constructed from high-quality steel, a material prized in industrial furniture for its exceptional strength-to-weight ratio. This metal foundation provides superior stability and long-term durability compared to some all-wood alternatives, making it an excellent choice for busy households or frequently used kitchen islands.

Absolutely. While backless stools are convenient for tucking completely away, a high-back stool like this one features a slat-back design that provides essential postural support. This makes it a far superior option for activities that require sitting for longer periods, such as enjoying a full meal, homeschooling, or working from home at the kitchen counter.

Based on our expertise with mixed-material furniture, we recommend regular dusting with a soft, lint-free cloth to maintain the rustic charm of the brown finish. For the steel frame and wood seat, a simple solution of mild soap and warm water is sufficient for cleaning spills. Our care guides advise against using harsh chemical cleaners or abrasives, which can damage the industrial patina over time.
