This enables easy fit and avoids "leg squeeze," a common problem when you get a stool that is too high. Many of our great barstools are available in a counter height. These are slightly lower than a standard bar stool and are particularly well suited to go with lower work surfaces and are a lovely addition to any kitchen, dining room, family room or den. Arms are designed at the perfect height for added enjoyment. Seating design is enhanced with the addition of arms.
