Fanshawe Gray Swivel Barstool

This stool features a 30-inch seat height, which is specifically designed for bar-height surfaces (typically 40 to 42 inches tall). For a standard 36-inch kitchen counter, our experts recommend a counter-height stool with a seat height of 24 to 26 inches. This ensures an optimal 10-to-12-inch gap between the seat and the underside of the counter for comfortable legroom and posture.

Yes, customer assembly is required for this item. We provide comprehensive, step-by-step instructions to ensure the swivel mechanism and 4-leg base are securely attached for maximum stability. For the best results and to protect your floors during the process, we recommend assembling the stool on a soft, carpeted surface or using the provided packaging as a barrier.

This stool is built with a sturdy 4-leg wood frame finished in a dark brown tone. This classic construction provides a stable foundation and a high weight capacity compared to some lightweight metal alternatives. The combination of a solid wood frame and a square, padded seat ensures the stool remains comfortable and stable for long-term daily use.

The 360-degree swivel mechanism provides both social flexibility and floor protection. It allows you to turn easily to engage in conversation or exit the seat without having to push the stool back. By reducing the need to drag the 4-leg wood base across the floor, the swivel function helps minimize the risk of scuffs and scratches on hardwood or tile surfaces.

The seat is upholstered in 100% polyester, a material selected for its exceptional durability and resilience. Polyester is naturally resistant to stretching, shrinking, and wrinkling, making it an ideal choice for a busy kitchen or bar. Our care guidelines recommend regular vacuuming with an upholstery attachment to remove dust and blotting spills immediately with a clean, damp cloth to maintain the fabric's gray finish.

While the 4-leg wood base is designed for stability, we recommend applying felt pads or rubber gliders to the bottom of each leg. This is particularly important for high-traffic areas with hardwood, laminate, or tile flooring to provide a protective buffer and ensure the stool moves quietly and smoothly.

Yes, this stool is strategically designed for space-conscious living. With a width of 21.5 inches and an armless, contemporary profile, it offers the support of a solid-back chair without the excessive bulk of wider dining furniture. This slim footprint allows multiple stools to be tucked neatly side-by-side, maximizing seating capacity at your bar or high-top table.
