Counter height, and the padding

Twenty four inches to the top of the cushion, marked by the maker for counters of 35 in to 39 in. The difference from a bare wood saddle is the 4.5 in of sponge, which is deep enough to feel like a seat rather than a perch.

Seat, cushion and rails

Eighteen inches across and 11 in deep is a generous saddle. The cushion is 4.5 in thick and the footrest rails sit 7 in up, 17 in below the seat, which is the spacing ergonomics guides suggest at counter height.

What the rails are doing

The rails run round all four legs rather than across the front only. They carry your feet, and they are also the bracing that keeps a backless stool from racking when someone leans on one corner.

For counters of 35 in to 39 in.

Deep sponge under a dipped seat.

Breathable woven fabric, pulled down with buttons.

Stores under the counter between meals.

Round all four legs, doubling as bracing.

What we stand behind

• The 24 in seat height, the 18 in by 11 in seat, the 4.5 in cushion, the 7 in footrest and the 350 lb figure come from this listing's own drawing.
• The title says 24 inch and the drawing agrees.
• One manufacturer photograph shows four stools. This listing is a set of two.
• The 350 lb rating is the manufacturer's stated maximum load, from a rig test.
• Ships from our United States warehouse, free shipping over $150, and 14 day returns unused in the original packaging.

How deep is the padding?

Four and a half inches of high density sponge under the linen, which is deeper than most counter stool cushions.

What counter height suits these?

The maker marks 35 in to 39 in. Under a 36 in counter the 24 in seat leaves 12 in of knee room.

Do the buttons dig in?

The tufting is shallow and set into the sponge rather than pulled tight, so the buttons sit below the surface of the fabric.

How do I clean the linen?

Vacuum the weave and blot spills straight away with a barely damp cloth. No cleaning code is published, so test somewhere hidden first.
