Bar Stool Chairs: Superior Stools And Chair Choices For Your House Bar

If you plan to buy a bar stool online, read on for a full overview of Amazon's four most popular bar stool chairs.

The Air Lift Stool by Winsome Wood

The Winsome Wood air lift adjustable stools are funky and cool with a stainless steel frame, black faux-leather seats and a curved foot rest that invokes the feeling of a modern barber shop. The stools typically cost between $175 and $225 for twos, a pretty good value for what looks like a designer model.

The adjustable height feature is great for people who want to customize their stool heights depending on the user and the bar height. Unfortunately, the Winsome Wood air lift adjustable stools have one major drawback - the padding in the seat is minimal at best. Unless you're accustomed to a wooden bar stool or not intending to use the seats for long periods, you may want to buy a different product.

Valencia Eco-Friendly Indoor and Outdoor Bar Stools

Valencia constructs their eco-friendly bar stools from selunsar wood - it's a dense imported wood that is comparable to teak in its ability to withstand the elements and stand up to wind, rain, snow and sunlight. It's also a fast growing wood, meaning it's environmentally sustainable and a greener choice.

Before they're built, the Valencia stools are painted with linseed oil, which both protects and treats the wood, ensuring long-term durability, but using an all-natural product. They cost between $90 and $120 for a pair, a pretty reasonably priced.

In short, these eco-friendly stools are fairly basic, but for the price they're a very good value. For buyers looking for a green bar stool solution, this is probably the best product in its price range.

The Carolina Cottage Stool by Carolina Furniture

The Carolina Cottage Stool comes in four colors - antique black, walnut, antique white and antique red. It's also available in both a 24-inch and 30-inch size. The stools retail for close to $100 per stool, and so are at the higher end of the price spectrum, but they're also made from solid imported wood and hand crafted.

The stool comes pre-assembled direct from the factory where it's been handcrafted and built from high-quality wood. At a substantial 15 pounds, these stools are durable and strong and able to carry a fair amount of weight thanks to their reinforced leg braces.

Monte Carlo Leather Game Room Stool by VisionDecor Furniture

For anywhere from $300 to $400 per pair of stools, buyers are guaranteed a durable stool that's both fairly luxurious and strong. Weighing in at 20 pounds and over 30 inches high, the Monte Carlo Leather Stool is both impressive and substantial.

The primary drawback of this luxury leather stool are the arm rests. Some buyers might like them, but others may find them inhibiting or a nuisance rather than a luxury. Before you buy a full set of these bar stool chairs, you should try one out to see how you like it.
