Choosing The Right Bar Stools For Your Establishment

Posted by Unfinished Furniture Expo on February 25th, 2020

When you're looking for decent bar stools, you need to take a number of things into consideration before you actually make any kind of purchase. For one thing, what type of establishment do you have? What is the current theme? What is the level of light? These are all things that need to be established prior to buying any stools, because the wrong colour or style of stool can severely detract from the environment, which should in no way be the desired outcome.

If you are looking for a stool that will work well in a wood setting or even your home, you might want to look into a wooden stool set. There are a couple different types of wooden bar stool, one of them being the unfinished stool. This is a type of stool that has been used in many homes and professional establishments, and it's most distinguishing attribute is the fact that it is not stained.

Because it is not stained, it may be prone to cracking or decaying, which means you will need to make sure you take care of it as much as possible. There are measures you can take to preserve this type of bar stool which you will undoubtedly learn as you go along.

Stained wooden stools will not only last longer, they will also provide a much better affect in a darker area. It is important to make sure that your bar stool set actually matches the theme, whether you have chosen a more modern theme, an antique theme, or a mixture of the two. It is also important to make sure that you purchase high quality bar stools, and to do this you will need to make sure you are buying from a good supplier.

You should expect to pay quite a bit for a good set of stools. This doesn't mean that a wooden bar stool set should break the bank, but they should at least be of a decent quality. For instance you want a bar stool that can actually support anyone that wants to sit on it, and you want to make sure that all four legs touch the ground. Sometimes that can be a tall order, but the last thing you want is that one stool at the bar that rocks back and forth until someone finally puts a drink coaster underneath it.

For this reason you will need to scrutinize, and possibly even choose a cheaper set of bar stools to suffice until you can find more suitable models for your purposes. There are a few other considerations, especially when it comes to colour. This goes more to cleanliness than it does to the theme however, as some colours tend to attract dirt and dust more than others do.

White stools, wooden or not, tend to show dirt and will be extremely difficult to get clean. It would be advised that you go with a dark brown or even black stool. In addition to the colour however, it would be a good idea to make sure that you choose bar stools of the proper height. Measure your bar from the floor up, and make sure that people will be able to sit at the bar comfortably. This isn't always easy, but trial and error will eventually persevere.

You can buy your stools online or you can buy them at a store. It is recommended that you research prices online, and most furniture stores will have a website on which you can compare the prices. The last thing you want to do is overpay, because you're already going to be paying enough for your bar stools as it is. In the end it will be your choice, and the right wooden stool will light up even the darkest of establishments.
