How to Choose the Right Bar Stool Height for Your Kitchen

Choosing the Right Bar Stool Height for Your Kitchen (MAKA Furniture of Plastic and Metal Options)

To select the ideal bar stool height for your kitchen from MAKA Furniture’s plastic options, start by measuring your counter or bar height. Standard bar height is typically 40-42 inches, counter height is 35-37 inches, and table height is 28-30 inches.

For a standard bar height (40-42″), choose stools that are 28-30″ high. If you have a counter height surface (35-37″), opt for stools that are 24-26″ high. For table height surfaces (28-30″), select stools that are 18-20″ high. The goal is to maintain 9-12 inches of space between the seat of the stool and the underside of the counter for comfortable leg room.

When considering MAKA Furniture’s plastic bar stools, you’ll have options with and without arms. Stools with arms provide additional support and comfort, making them ideal for longer seating periods. They can also add a more sophisticated look to your kitchen. However, they may not fit as easily under the counter and can limit mobility. Stools without arms are easier to tuck under the counter, allow for more flexibility in movement, and are often more space-efficient. They’re a great choice if you prefer a cleaner look or need to maximize seating in a smaller space. However, they offer less support for extended seating periods.

Additional factors to consider when choosing your MAKA Furniture plastic bar stools include:

1. Footrest: Ensure the stool has a footrest at a comfortable height for added support.
2. Swivel vs. Stationary: Decide if you want stools that swivel for easier access or stationary ones for a more fixed seating arrangement.
3. Style and Color: Choose a style and color that complements your kitchen decor. MAKA Furniture likely offers various color options in their plastic stool range.
4. Durability: Plastic stools are generally easy to clean and maintain, making them ideal for kitchen use.
5. Space Between Stools: Allow 26-30 inches from the center of one stool to the center of the next for comfortable seating.
6. Weight Capacity: Check the weight capacity of the plastic stools to ensure they’re suitable for all users.
7. Adjustable Height: Some MAKA Furniture stools might offer adjustable height options, providing more flexibility.

By considering these factors, you can select the perfect plastic bar stools from MAKA Furniture, either with or without arms, that will fit comfortably at your kitchen counter and enhance both the functionality and style of your space.
