Nielan Gray Counter Height Stool

This stool features a 27-inch seat height, which is specifically designed for standard counter-height surfaces (typically 34 to 36 inches tall). To ensure optimal comfort and legroom, our experts recommend maintaining a 10 to 12-inch gap between the top of the stool’s seat and the underside of your counter.

Based on our furniture care expertise, we recommend regular dusting of the straight legs and frame with a soft, dry cloth. For the gray upholstered seat, any spills should be blotted immediately. Our knowledge base suggests using a mild soap and water solution for spot cleaning; always avoid harsh chemicals to preserve the integrity of the rustic finish and the decorative nailhead trim.

To allow for comfortable movement and dining, we recommend leaving 21 to 24 inches of space for each person. Given the 20-inch width of this stool, you should aim for at least 6 inches of breathing room between each seat. This ensures that guests can easily get in and out of the saddle-style seats without feeling crowded.

Absolutely. A backless design is a strategic choice for smaller urban spaces or narrow galley kitchens. Because it lacks a backrest, this stool can be tucked completely underneath the counter when not in use. This keeps your walkways clear and creates a cleaner, more open visual line in your home.

The saddle seat is designed with a slight curve to follow the natural contours of the body. This provides more ergonomic support and weight distribution than a flat seat, making it a more comfortable option for casual morning coffee or evening socializing at the island.

Yes, customer assembly is required for this item. Each stool is shipped with all the necessary hardware and straightforward instructions, allowing for a sturdy and secure setup in your dining space.

This stool is built with sturdy straight legs for maximum stability. To proactively protect high-end flooring like hardwood or laminate from potential scuffs or scratches, we recommend applying stick-on felt pads to the bottom of the legs, which is a common best practice for stationary kitchen seating.
