We skip the middleman and import directly, passing the savings on to you.

Why Choose Bar Stools with Backs?

While backless stools are great for saving space, bar stools with backrests are the ultimate choice for comfort and safety. They provide crucial lumbar and shoulder support, promoting better posture and allowing you and your guests to sit comfortably for hours. Our range features:

Ergonomic Support: Curved backrests designed to support your lumbar and improve posture for extended sitting sessions at your kitchen bench or home bar.

Safety for Families: A more secure seating option for children and the elderly compared to backless designs — giving you genuine peace of mind.

Style Versatility: From sophisticated leather bar stools to plush velvet bar stools and warm wooden swivel designs, our collection caters to every Australian home aesthetic.

Pair your new bar stools with one of our dining tables or complete the look with a full dining room furniture refresh.

How to Choose the Right Stool Height (Expert Tip)

Getting the measurements right is crucial for a comfortable seating experience. As a rule of thumb, always leave 25cm to 30cm of clearance between the stool seat and the underside of your benchtop.

Counter Height Stools (approx. 65cm seat height): Ideal for standard Australian kitchen islands and breakfast benches (90cm high).

Bar Height Stools (approx. 75cm seat height): Best suited for raised bar counters, commercial settings, and custom-built high tables (100cm to 105cm high).

Adjustable Stools: Many of our models feature gas-lift mechanisms, giving you the flexibility to customise the height to suit any table or bench. If you're unsure, an adjustable model is always the safest choice.

Frequently Asked Questions

Are bar stools with backs better than backless stools? Yes, if you plan on using them for extended periods. Bar stools with backrests offer superior lumbar support, making them the preferred choice for daily family meals, home offices, or long evenings entertaining guests. They are also a safer option for children and elderly family members.

What height bar stool do I need for my kitchen bench? For a standard Australian kitchen bench at 90cm high, a counter stool with a seat height of approximately 65cm is ideal. For higher bar counters at 100cm to 105cm, choose a bar stool at approximately 75cm. When in doubt, opt for one of our gas-lift adjustable models for maximum flexibility.

Can I pick up my bar stools in-store? Absolutely. You can order online and collect directly from any of our showrooms or from our primary distribution warehouse in Rocklea. Simply select "Pickup" at checkout. See all store locations here.
