Joycestone Beige Counter Height Stool

Yes, this stool is specifically designed for counter-height surfaces. It features a seat height of 25.5 inches, which provides the ideal 10-to-12-inch clearance required for standard 34-to-36-inch kitchen counters or islands. This gap ensures you have comfortable legroom while maintaining an ergonomic posture for dining or working.

This stool is built with a reinforced open metal frame, offering exceptional structural integrity and stability compared to traditional lightweight wood frames. The geometric design and arched legs are not just stylistic choices; they create a wide, stable base that prevents tipping. Metal frames are also highly resistant to the warping or joint loosening that can occur in humid environments or with heavy daily use.

This stool features an amply padded square seat and a full-back design, which provides significantly more lumbar and upper-back support than low-back or backless alternatives. Based on ergonomic standards, a full backrest is a superior choice for those who use their kitchen island for extended activities like homework, remote work, or long family meals, as it helps reduce seating fatigue.

To ensure a comfortable experience, we recommend allowing 28 to 30 inches of space per person. Given this stool’s generous width of nearly 24 inches, you should leave approximately 6 to 10 inches of space between each stool to allow for easy movement. For a standard 6-foot island, two stools would offer a spacious, uncluttered look, while a larger 8-foot island could comfortably accommodate three.

To keep the beige upholstery looking pristine, our care experts recommend regular dusting with a soft cloth to prevent debris from settling into the fibers. For spills, it is best to blot immediately with a clean, dry cloth. Based on our general maintenance guidelines, a mixture of mild soap and warm water can be used for spot cleaning; however, we advise against harsh chemicals which can damage the fabric's finish.

The arched legs of this stool are designed to distribute weight evenly across the floor. For homeowners with sensitive flooring like hardwood or polished tile, we recommend adding felt or rubber floor protectors to the base of the metal legs. This proactive measure prevents scuffing and ensures the stool glides smoothly without catching on grout lines or wood grain.

While the stool offers a generous seat, its "open-frame" geometric design is specifically tailored to maximize visual space. This makes it an excellent choice for urban apartments or smaller kitchens, as the light can pass through the frame, preventing the room from feeling crowded. Its clean, mid-century aesthetic allows it to blend seamlessly into modern decors without the bulk of traditional, fully-skirted chairs.
