Olsin Cream Counter Height Stool

Yes, this stool is designed for both style and durability. The faux leather upholstery is a high-performance material that is naturally resistant to spills and stains, making it much easier to maintain than traditional fabric. For daily cleaning, our care guides suggest simply wiping the surface with a damp cloth and mild soap to keep the cream finish looking fresh in high-traffic family environments.

To ensure a comfortable seating experience, we recommend maintaining a gap of 10 to 12 inches between the top of the seat and the underside of your counter. This stool features a seat height of 25.5 inches, making it an ideal match for standard 36-inch counter-height surfaces. This specific clearance provides ample legroom for dining or working at your kitchen island.

The frame is constructed using pressed grain bamboo, a material our experts value for its impressive density and structural stability. This construction method makes the frame highly resistant to warping or cracking over time compared to some softwoods. The walnut finish adds a rich, contemporary aesthetic while highlighting the strength of the underlying bamboo core.

To prevent crowding and ensure ease of movement, it is best to leave 6 to 10 inches between each stool. Because this model features a 21.25-inch width and a swivel function, providing about 8 to 10 inches of space will allow guests to rotate freely and exit the seat comfortably without bumping into neighbors.

These stools are exceptionally well-suited for smaller living spaces due to their low-back, mid-century modern profile. The low back ensures that the stools don't block the line of sight across your counter, which helps a small kitchen feel more open and airy. Additionally, the tapered legs and square seat create a streamlined silhouette that tucks neatly against the island when not in use.

While these stools are built with sturdy tapered wood legs, we recommend using high-quality felt pads or glides to prevent any potential scuffing on delicate flooring. A notable benefit of this stool is its swivel feature; by allowing the user to turn the seat rather than sliding the entire frame back and forth, you significantly reduce the frequency of floor contact and the risk of scratches.
