Kitchen bar stools and chairs are seating options designed for kitchens and islands, differing from counter stools in height and purpose:
Bar Stools:
- Tall stools typically 40–42 inches high with a seat height of 29–30 inches.
- Commonly used at bars, lounges, and pubs, but also suitable for kitchen counters.
- Compact in size, shape, and style, with optional features such as footrests, gas lift mechanisms for adjustable height, or 360-degree swivel.
Counter Stools: Shorter stools specifically designed for use at kitchen counters or islands.
Bar Chairs: Larger than bar stools, offering a higher backrest for added support.
