Q&A answers generated with AI assistance.
What are the advantages of choosing a stool with a swivel feature?
A swivel stool offers enhanced mobility and social flexibility, making it an excellent choice for open-concept living areas. The ability to rotate 360 degrees allows you to easily shift your attention between the kitchen and the living room without moving the entire furniture piece. Additionally, because you can turn the seat to get in and out, there is less need to slide the legs across the floor, which helps protect your flooring from unnecessary wear and tear.
How much spacing should I allow between stools along my counter?
For a comfortable and uncluttered look, we recommend leaving roughly 8 to 10 inches of space between each stool. This ensures that guests have enough elbow room and can freely utilize the swivel function without bumping into one another. With a width of 20.75 inches, these stools are substantial enough to provide a high-end feel while remaining practical for standard kitchen layouts.
Is this stool a good choice for a small apartment or compact kitchen?
This stool is very well-suited for urban apartment living. Its transitional design and white-washed finish create a light, airy aesthetic that can make a smaller kitchen feel more open and less crowded. The sleek bentwood legs provide a sturdy foundation without a bulky footprint, allowing the stools to sit neatly against a counter even in limited square footage.
How do I protect my hardwood or laminate floors from the stool legs?
This stool is designed with a stable 4-leg base. To safeguard your flooring investment, especially high-end hardwood or laminate, we recommend adding felt pads to the bottom of the legs. Furthermore, the swivel mechanism of the seat serves as a proactive floor-protection feature, as it allows users to turn and exit the seat without needing to push the stool back, significantly reducing the frequency of leg-to-floor friction.
How do I know if this stool is the right height for my kitchen island?
This stool features a seat height of 26 inches, which is the industry standard for counter-height seating. It is designed to pair perfectly with kitchen islands or counters that stand between 34 and 36 inches tall. To ensure a comfortable experience, our design experts recommend maintaining a 10-to-12-inch gap between the top of the stool seat and the underside of your counter to allow for ample legroom.
Is this stool comfortable for extended periods, such as for work or homework?
Yes, this stool is engineered for long-term comfort. The full backrest provides essential lumbar support that is often missing in low-back or backless designs, while the padded seat is upholstered in soft yet durable fabric. This makes it an ideal choice for multi-functional spaces where the kitchen island serves as a temporary home office or a dedicated spot for kids to finish their homework.
What is the best way to clean and maintain the fabric upholstery?
The seat is upholstered in 100% polyester, a performance-oriented material known for its resilience in high-traffic areas. Based on our material care expertise, we recommend regular vacuuming with an upholstery attachment to prevent dust from settling into the fibers. For spills, blot the area immediately with a clean, dry cloth. If a deeper clean is required, a mild soap and water solution can be used for spot treatment, but always test on an inconspicuous area first to preserve the fabric's integrity.
