Watertown Natural Upholstered Counter Height Stool

This stool is built for longevity, featuring sturdy straight legs and a frame constructed with Okoume wood veneers, known for their structural stability and resistance to warping. Furthermore, the footrest is specifically protected to withstand the constant contact and wear that occurs in a busy household, ensuring the natural finish remains beautiful over time.

This stool is designed with several ergonomic features, including a padded upholstered seat and a supportive oval back. The mid-century inspired design includes angled back posts for a relaxed posture, while the built-in footrest provides essential lower-body support, making it comfortable for dining, working, or socializing at your counter.

This is a counter-height stool with a seat height of 26 inches. For optimal comfort and legroom, we recommend maintaining 10 to 12 inches of clearance between the seat and the underside of your counter. This makes it a perfect fit for standard kitchen counters or islands that typically stand between 34 to 36 inches high.

To ensure adequate elbow room and easy movement, you should generally allow for 24 to 30 inches of space per person. Given this stool’s 18.25-inch width, leaving about 6 to 10 inches between each unit is ideal. For example, a standard 6-foot island can typically accommodate three of these stools comfortably.

The upholstery is made from durable polyester, which can be maintained with regular vacuuming and light spot cleaning. Based on our furniture care expertise, we recommend using a soft cloth dampened with mild soap and warm water for any spills. For the Okoume wood veneers, a simple dusting with a soft cloth will preserve the natural finish and prevent debris from scratching the surface.

Yes, this stool is exceptionally well-suited for smaller living spaces. Its 18.25-inch width offers a slim profile that doesn't sacrifice comfort, and the light "natural" finish and airy oval back help prevent a small kitchen from feeling crowded. Its scale is ideal for maximizing seating in urban apartments or narrow dining areas.
