Bar Stools & Counter Stools Deals

Cheap bar stools in swivel and backless styles

Cheap bar stools and counter stools for kitchen islands and breakfast bars are listed here. Swivel, backless and adjustable seats come in wood, metal and upholstered finishes, often in pairs or sets, so pulling up extra seats for homework, coffee or casual meals stays affordable.

Bar or counter height: choosing cheap bar stools that fit

• Counters near 36 inches need roughly 24-inch seats, while 42-inch bars need about 30-inch seats.
• Allow about 26 to 30 inches of counter length per seat, which tells you whether a set of 2, 3 or 4 stools will fit.
• Backless designs tuck away neatly, while stools with backs are more comfortable for long meals or working at the island.
• Swivel seats, footrests and floor glides matter on hardwood, and the weight limit per seat should be stated in the listing.

Which suits you: Quick breakfasts and tight kitchens do well with backless counter stools, while families who eat or work at the island are better served by full-back stools with footrests.
