Duffield Black Counter Height Stool

Based on our expertise in furniture maintenance, we recommend dusting the surfaces regularly with a soft, dry cloth to prevent debris buildup. For spills on the wooden seat or metal frame, use a cloth dampened with a mixture of mild soap and water. You should avoid using harsh abrasives or chemical cleaners, as these can damage the refined black finish over time.

Yes, with a 25-inch seat height, this stool is specifically designed for counter-height surfaces, which typically measure between 34 and 36 inches tall. This height provides approximately 9 to 11 inches of legroom between the seat and the underside of the counter, meeting the professional recommendation for optimal comfort and clearance.

To safeguard delicate flooring such as hardwood, laminate, or tile, we recommend applying high-quality felt pads or rubber caps to the bottom of the straight metal legs. Because these stools are stationary, adding floor protectors is a simple and effective way to prevent scuffs and ensure the stools slide quietly across the floor during use.

This stool is engineered for exceptional stability and features a high-performance metal frame with a maximum weight capacity of 300 lbs. The combination of a robust frame and a solid wood seat provides a sturdy, long-lasting seating solution that can easily withstand the daily demands of a busy household.

While backless stools are often used for short-term perching, this stool’s slat-back design provides necessary upper-body support, making it much more suitable for full meals or long conversations. The stationary, straight-leg construction also provides a more grounded and secure feel compared to swivel models, which is often a priority for families with children.

This stool is an excellent choice for compact spaces. Its slim 17.5-inch width allows you to fit more seating along a counter without overcrowding the area. Additionally, the modern, open-back silhouette and sleek black finish help maintain "visual transparency," preventing the furniture from making a small room feel cluttered or cramped.
