Barstool Buyer’s Guide
How to Find the Right Height & Style
Choosing the perfect barstool can transform your space, adding both functionality and charm. Whether you're furnishing a cozy cabin retreat or enhancing your home's rustic appeal, selecting the right barstool involves considering height, style, and material. Let's explore how to make the best choice for your needs with Log Furniture Place.
Determining the Right Height
Ensuring your barstool matches the height of your counter or bar is crucial for comfort and aesthetics. Here's a simple guide to help you choose:
Counter Height (34-39 inches): Opt for stools with a seat height of 24-26 inches.
Bar Height (40-42 inches): Stools should have a seat height of 28-30 inches.
Extra-Tall Bar Height (44-47 inches): Look for stools with a seat height of 33-36 inches.
A general rule is to maintain a 10-12 inch gap between the seat and the underside of the counter or bar to ensure comfortable seating.
Selecting the Perfect Style
The style of your barstool should complement your existing décor while reflecting your personal taste. Here are some rustic options to consider:

Material Matters
When selecting a barstool, consider the material to ensure it aligns with your space's aesthetic and your lifestyle needs.
Wood: Offers a timeless, sturdy option that complements rustic and traditional decors.
Metal: Provides a sleek, modern look and is often more lightweight.
Upholstered Seats: Add comfort and a touch of luxury but may require more maintenance.
Final Tips
Measure Your Space: Ensure there's enough room for each stool and that they can be tucked under the counter when not in use.
Consider Functionality: Features like swivel seats or backrests can add comfort but may require more space.
Match Your Decor: Choose styles and finishes that complement your existing furniture and overall aesthetic.
