Lafanette V Charcoal Swivel Counter Height Stool, Set of 2

Each stool has a width of 20.75 inches. To ensure your guests have enough elbow room and can utilize the swivel feature without bumping into one another, we recommend leaving 8 to 10 inches of space between each seat. For a standard 6-foot (72-inch) kitchen island, a set of two provides a spacious and balanced look, while a larger 8-foot island could comfortably accommodate three to four stools.

This stool is an excellent choice for urban living where style and footprint must be balanced. The mid-century modern design features a streamlined silhouette and a warm walnut finish that adds sophisticated "retro chic" without the bulk of traditional furniture. With a depth of 23.5 inches, it provides a substantial, high-quality seating experience while remaining scaled appropriately for the compact kitchen layouts often found in modern apartments.

The swivel mechanism on this stool offers 360-degree rotation, providing significant functional advantages in open-concept homes. It allows you to transition easily between kitchen tasks and social conversations without moving the entire unit. From a maintenance perspective, a swivel stool is often better for your flooring; because the user can turn to exit the seat, there is less need to drag or "scoot" the 4-leg base across hardwood or tile surfaces, reducing the risk of scratches.

This stool features a seat height of 25.5 inches, which is the industry standard for "counter height" seating. Our experts recommend a gap of 10 to 12 inches between the seat and the underside of the counter for optimal legroom and comfort. This makes this stool a perfect fit for standard kitchen islands or tables that stand roughly 36 inches tall.

While backless stools are prized for their ability to tuck completely away, a full-back design like the one on this mid-century modern stool is the superior choice for comfort and longevity during use. The high 40.5-inch back provides essential lumbar support, making it suitable for longer activities such as morning coffee, homework sessions, or casual dinner parties where guests may be seated for extended periods.

Based on our furniture care expertise, we recommend regular dusting of the walnut-finished legs with a soft, dry cloth to maintain the wood’s luster. For the charcoal fabric upholstery, which is naturally better at hiding daily wear than lighter tones, you should spot clean spills immediately by blotting with a clean cloth and a mixture of mild soap and water. Always avoid harsh chemicals to preserve the integrity of the fabric fibers and the dark wood finish.
