Bar Stools with Backrest

Bar stools with backrest: the right height for your kitchen

The right seat height depends on your worktop. At a kitchen island or counter of about 90 cm, a seat height of around 65 cm is comfortable, for example Maite, Elva, Pola or Caio. For a bar table of 105 to 110 cm, go for around 75 cm with Aston, Ellis or India. Adjustable stools such as Brooke, Hackney, Ridge and Kai work at both heights.

The backrest supports your lower back and turns a stool into a proper seat for breakfast, working from home or an evening with friends. At Furnicher you will find bar stools with backrest in fabric, bouclé, velvet, rattan, wood and faux leather.

Frequently asked questions

What seat height do I need for my kitchen island?

Measure the height of your worktop and subtract 25 to 30 cm. For a standard 90 cm kitchen island, that gives a seat height of about 60 to 65 cm.

Which bar stools with backrest swivel?

The adjustable versions of Brooke, Hackney, Ridge, Kai and Neveah also swivel. The product details of each stool show whether it swivels and how far the height adjusts.

How do I care for bouclé and faux leather?

Faux leather simply wipes clean with a damp cloth. Vacuum bouclé and fabric regularly with the upholstery nozzle, and treat stains straight away with a little water and mild soap.
