Q&A answers generated with AI assistance.
How many stools should I place along my kitchen island?
To maintain an uncluttered aesthetic and ensure guest comfort, you should allow for roughly 28 to 30 inches of space per person. These stools have a width of 20.25 inches; because they feature a swivel mechanism, we recommend leaving 8 to 10 inches between each stool. This spacing prevents the seats from bumping into each other when users turn and provides ample elbow room for a set of two.
How do I know if these stools are the right height for my kitchen counter?
These stools feature a seat height of 24 inches, which is the professional standard for counter-height surfaces. Most kitchen islands and counters stand approximately 36 inches high. Following the industry-recommended "10-to-12-inch rule" for legroom, these stools provide exactly 12 inches of clearance, ensuring a comfortable fit for dining, working, or socializing without feeling cramped.
What is the best way to clean and maintain upholstered stools?
The charcoal upholstery is made from 100% polyester, a performance-oriented fabric known for its durability and resistance to shrinking. For routine care, our experts recommend vacuuming the square seat with a soft brush attachment to prevent dust from settling into the weave. For spills, blot the area immediately with a clean, damp cloth and a drop of mild detergent. Polyester’s resilient fibers are particularly well-suited for high-traffic kitchen environments where occasional messes are expected.
Are low-back stools a good choice for a modern, small-space apartment?
Absolutely. Low-back furniture is a strategic choice for urban apartments or smaller kitchens because it maintains a clear line of sight across the room. At just 35.5 inches in total height, these stools provide essential lumbar support without the visual bulk of a full-back chair. This minimalist contemporary design helps your kitchen island feel more integrated into your living space, making the entire room appear larger and more open.
How difficult is it to assemble these stools?
This set of two requires customer assembly and is designed for a straightforward, efficient setup. All necessary hardware is included. To ensure long-term stability, we recommend following the instructions carefully to secure the swivel plate to the stainless steel frame. Based on our assembly standards, building the stools on a soft surface, such as a rug, will help protect the charcoal fabric and metal finish from any accidental scuffs during the process.
Is a swivel stool a good option for high-traffic dining areas?
Swivel movement is highly advantageous in open-concept homes or busy kitchens, as it allows users to easily enter and exit the seat or turn toward the living area without having to push the stool back. This helps preserve your floors and makes conversation more fluid. The Towton I is built with a sturdy four-leg stainless steel base to ensure the swivel mechanism remains stable and balanced even with frequent daily use.
How can I protect my hardwood floors from stools with metal legs?
These stools are constructed with stainless steel legs, offering a high-end look and exceptional durability. To protect delicate flooring surfaces like hardwood, laminate, or tile, we recommend applying heavy-duty felt pads or rubber glides to the bottom of the four legs. This proactive step prevents scratches and scuffs while ensuring the stools move quietly across the floor when adjusted.
